[F90:]subroutine gSetEscapeChar(cha) character*(*), intent(in) :: cha
Arguments
cha
Single character
Description
The routine gSetEscapeChar() sets the escape character to cha. It is used in interpreting the character argument in gDisplayStr(). The default escape character is *.
The escape character may be set to any non-control character (ie. Ascii codes 32-255) however if that character has special significance to gDisplayStr(), that gDisplayStr() function will then not be available. i.e. if the escape character is changed to the character F, a change of font will not be possible within the gDisplayStr() routine.
