void msg_set

(promptblock_t* blk)

Set the current prompt block.

Documentation

Set the current prompt block.

Sets the current prompt block. All subsequent accesses will refer to this block, which must be a descriptor returned by msg_open(). As a side effect, the current block (msg_cur) becomes the last block ( msg_last). The specified block becomes the current block.

This function is used to switch between prompt blocks. Usually, each module has its own, single block. However, there are times when you need to access briefly another block and this is where this function comes in. The system block, msg_sys is one such example.

Parameters:

blk - A prompt block descriptor returned by a previous call to msg_open().
