Re: Logon Screen Customization
Hi, I play around with MUSIC/SP for my own purposes. I was wondering if
it's possible to change the MUSIC logon splash. I dug around its filesystem
but can't find anything that controls the login screen. Any ideas on how
this can be done?
I used to customise the MUSIC/SP logon screen to include the name of the college I worked for back in the day. Unfortunately, I never thought of saving the code I used at the time. I have made a blind attempt at reconstructing the code to generate the original logon screen. I'm not sure how correct it is. The source file should be executed to generate an object file which is then included in the MUSIC/SP nucleus. Regards, Peter Coghlan.

Re: Logon Screen Customization
Hello (whoever you are),
Appendix B of the Administrator Reference says the logo is a CSECT, part of the system resident modules.?The MUSIC logo source is normally located in the "$SYS:" account. On the MUSIC 6.2 Demo, the account is empty.

Does anyone have a pdf/txt version of a reference manual for watc.
any cheat sheets, etc.
It would be most helpful and I am trying to port gcc "C" programes
over to watc.
Thank You

HP3000 MPE System APL character display
The only Windows computer i have is an old Dell Latitude D830 with Windows 10.
The graphics inside the Dell Latitude is not good enough for the MAME facility
with the HP3000 emulator and the HP APL terminal software.
( error message about Direct3D or something )
Any hints on what to do?

Since MUSIC/APL was based on the Type III "free" and non-copyrighted copy of APL

Are you sure such a support is available? The WatC documentation on MUSIC/SP enumerates the features not supported, and among them: "3270 full-screen Panel Library (for the MVS/TSO environment)". Apparently, "MUSIC/SP's Panel Facility can be used instead; MUSIC/SP Panel routines must be called indirectly via the fvscalli() library function."?

You can learn more about fvscalli using the "chelp" command; also, topic 12 in the help watc display gives examples on how to use fvscalli.
However, as I am not sure what you mean by "watc full screen support", the above may not be exactly what you are looking for. :-(

Re: watc screen functions
Well, crud.? As I expected.? I wiped out my music image at some point or other – forgot I had this PANEL thing working in it.? I’ll search old backups if I stored it on there.? I did go thru some old e-mail.? Didn’t find the one I wanted, but, from 9/21/06 when I initially asked Dave Edwards about it. ? ? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ? As far as I know, noone has tried it, but it should be possible. WatC uses different subroutine linkage conventions, so you would have to handle that. See topic 13 in "help watc". You would treat the panel routines as assembler. You would also have to somehow access the panel common block, I suppose as a data external reference in C. It should be possible, with some fiddling. - Dave ?
