accesswindow WNDWC
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Function Randomly accesses a covered window and places it on the top.
If the window is hidden, it uses showwindow to put it on
top.
Syntax void accesswindow( int windowname );
Remarks All underlays are properly updated in the heap with a high
speed technique. If NOACCESSMODE has been set for this
window or an invalid window name is used, the function is
simply ignored. Virtual windows are updated after being
shown. Zoom effect is optional. The wndwstat array is
shuffled to match the new levels.
Return value None.
Screens All video pages.
EOS Restored to new window.
Restrictions Shadows are permitted, but exposed corners on lower level
windows with shadows will not be updated until moved. For
human factors, shadows are only recommended for the top
window anyway.
Heap Temporarily uses (underlay size * 1.5).
Upon return Forced to write to CRT.
