Description

The time on the screen can be updated at specified intervals. If SET CLOCK is ON, then the time is updated on the screen during terminal ’read’ states in forms, menus, etc. By default, CLOCK is ON.

By default, the time is assumed to be displayed at row 0, column 69, but it may be repositioned with the command SET CLOCK TO row <expN1>, column <expN2>. SET CLOCK TO DEFAULT will reposition the clock display to the default position 0,69. To specify the interval at which the time display is updated, see the SET CLOCKRATE TO command.


Example

set clock on
set clock to 2,65
