PGPLOT Module: PGCURS -- read cursor position
INTEGER FUNCTION PGCURS (X, Y, CH)
REAL X, Y
CHARACTER*(*) CH
Read the cursor position and a character typed by the user.
The position is returned in world coordinates. PGCURS positions
the cursor at the position specified, allows the user to move the
cursor using the joystick or arrow keys or whatever is available on
the device. When he has positioned the cursor, the user types a
single character on the keyboard; PGCURS then returns this
character and the new cursor position (in world coordinates).
Returns
PGCURS : 1 if the call was successful; 0 if the device
has no cursor or some other error occurs.
Arguments
X (in/out) : the world x-coordinate of the cursor.
Y (in/out) : the world y-coordinate of the cursor.
CH (output) : the character typed by the user; if the device has
no cursor or if some other error occurs, the value
CHAR(0) [ASCII NUL character] is returned.
Note: The cursor coordinates (X,Y) may be changed by PGCURS even if
the device has no cursor or if the user does not move the cursor.
Under these circumstances, the position returned in (X,Y) is that of
the pixel nearest to the requested position.
