PRO TEXTOPEN,PROGRAM,TEXTOUT=TEXTOUT, STDOUT = STDOUT ;+ ; NAME: ; TEXTOPEN ; PURPOSE: ; Open a device specified by TEXTOUT with unit !TEXTUNIT ; EXPLANATION: ; Procedure to open file for text output. The type of output ; device (disk file or terminal screen) is specified by the ; TEXTOUT keyword or the (nonstandard) system variable !TEXTOUT. ; ; CALLING SEQUENCE: ; textopen, program, [ TEXTOUT =, /STDOUT ] ; ; INPUTS: ; program - scalar string giving name of program calling textopen ; ; OPTIONAL INPUT KEYWORDS: ; TEXTOUT - Integer scalar (0-7) specifying output file/device to be ; opened (see below) or scalar string giving name of output file. ; If TEXTOUT is not supplied, then the (non-standard) system ; variable !TEXTOUT is used. ; ; /STDOUT - if this keyword is set and non-zero, then the standard output ; (unit = -1) is used for TEXTOUT=1 or TEXTOUT=2. The use ; of STDOUT has 2 possible advantages: ; (1) the output will appear in a journal file ; (2) Many Unix machines print spurious control characters when ; printing to /dev/tty. These characters are eliminated by ; setting /STDOUT ; ; The disavdantage of /STDOUT is that the /MORE option is not ; available. ; ; SIDE EFFECTS: ; The following dev/file is opened for output. Different effects ; occur depending whether the standard output is a GUI (Macintosh, ; Windows, Unix/IDLTool) or a TTY ; ; textout=0 Nowhere ; textout=1 if a TTY then TERMINAL using /more option ; otherwise standard (Unit=-1) output ; textout=2 if a TTY then TERMINAL without /more option ; otherwise standard (Unit=-1) output ; textout=3 .prt ; textout=4 laser.tmp ; textout=5 user must open file ; textout=7 same as 3 but text is appended to .prt ; file if it already exists. ; textout = filename (default extension of .prt) ; ; The unit to be opened is obtained with the procedure GET_LUN ; unless !TEXTOUT=5. The unit number is placed in system variable ; !TEXTUNIT. For !TEXTOUT=5 the user must set !TEXTUNIT to the ; appropriate unit number. ; ; NOTES: ; When printing to a TTY terminal, the output will *not* appear in an ; IDL JOURNAL session, unlike text printed with the PRINT command. ; ; NON-STANDARD SYSTEM VARIABLES: ; DEFSYSV,'!TEXTOUT',1 ; DEFSYSV,'!TEXTUNIT',0 ; ; One way to add these variables is to use the procedure ASTROLIB ; HISTORY: ; D. Lindler Dec. 1986 ; Keyword textout added, J. Isensee, July, 1990 ; Made transportable, D. Neill, April, 1991 ; Trim input PROGRAM string W. Landsman Feb 1993 ; Don't modify TEXTOUT value W. Landsman Aug 1993 ; Modified for MacOS I. Freedman April 1994 ; Modified for output terminals without a TTY W. Landsman August 1995 ; Added /STDOUT keyword W. Landsman April 1996 ; added textout=7 option, D. Lindler, July, 1996 ; Converted to IDL V5.0 W. Landsman September 1997 ; Exit with RETURN instead of RETALL W.
