ARPUS/ce, Version 2.6.2 (03/10/05) (SCCS 1.3) _______________________________________________________________________________ rd "ReDraw window" DESCRIPTION: 'rd' instructs ce to immediately redraw the window. This is done without reguard to pending X events or other activity. It is used in the preparation of demonstrations along the sleep command. Because this is effectively an out of order call to an internal Ce drawing routine, some cursor dancing or other anomalies may be observed when using this command. Normally, Ce does drawing after all pending commands are completed. For example the CTL-t key combination normally contains the command sequence "pt;tt;tl", which causes the top page of data to be displayed. Ce will process all three of these commands before redrawing the screen. The same is true of command files processed with the "cmdf" command. All the commands are read in and processed before the screen is redrawn. The 'rd' command is the exception to this and may be used to redraw the screen at intermediate states.
