% These utilities implement "virtual screens" , and do screen refresh.
% (Primarily designed to serve as a support package for EMODE, but may be
% more generally useful.)

% Some support routines for this package reside in the file
% "V-SCREEN-SUPPORT.RED".

% The current implementation is tentative--needs more thought, more
% formalization of how refresh should work, better handling of terminals
% with line insert/delete, better handling of scrolling, more consideration
% of methods used for the Lisp Machine, etc.  (Should there be fewer levels
% of storage?)

% Virtual screens are represented as vectors of strings, one string for
% each row of the "screen".  (Other information, such as virtual cursor
% location, is also stored in the structure.)

% Virtual screens are created with the function "CreateVirtualScreen".  They
% aren't actually displayed until you call "SelectScreen"--which assigns a
% "screen number" for the screen (for masking) if it doesn't already have
% one, and "draws" the new screen "on top" of all the others.  (I.e. it
% "activates" the screen.)  Screens can be made to disappear by covering
% them with other screens, or by calling "DeSelectScreen".  It IS legal to
% operate on inactive screens (i.e. write to them, move the virtual cursor,
% etc).  To completely get rid of a screen, get rid of all references to
% it, and it will go away at the next garbage collection.

% The philosophy is that these arrays will serve as caches for stuff that
% can't actually make it to the "true screen" because of being covered by
% other "virtual screens".  The routines are optimized for writing
% characters onto a virtual screen--moving screens, putting a new screen on
% the top, etc., are much less efficiently handled.

% (Talk about fact that the two "screen images" don't really work the same
% way as virtual screens?)
