ECHO ) 1987-9 by G. Glendown
This program is *NOT* public domain, but may be copied and distributed on a
not-for-profit manner. It may be included in Fred's library. Any other
'Library-Creators' must ask me before including this program on their disk
(I hate to do that, but there are so many people over here in germany that
make people pay 10 Marks for some disks, half-full, and with programs they
take from other disks...)
Send any bug-reports, letters of appreciation, Porsche 911 or other small
gifts to the following address: (and I'd really like to know what WBSize
does on a NTSC Amy...)

Echo is a small replacement for the ADos-command echo that will do some
special little goodies:
-c Clear the screen
-e Delete from cursor to bottom of screen
-u/d [n] Scroll the screen up/down [n] lines
-h/r [n] Move the cursor up/down [n] lines
-p [x][y] Place cursor at postion (x,y)
-s [ubip] [A] [B] Set the text style and color. Only one style attribute
may be changed at a time, reset of the style by -s p 1 0
Attention: all paramters must be given, e.g. '-r 1' or '-d 1'!
Any number of parameters may be given after the echo command, leading to a
line like the following:
ECHO -c -sb 3 2 -p 30 2 "Aztec C" -sp 1 0 -su 2 0 -r 3 "Ready." -sp 1 0
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | | | | | | | reset style
| | | | | | | | to plain,
| | | | | | | | colors to 1,0
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | print 'Ready.'
| | | | | | Move cursor down 3 ines
| | | | | Set underline, color 2,0
| | | | reset style to plain, colors to 1,0

(phew, made it.)
Get it ?
Enjoy, Garry
