FT_PUSHVID() Save current video states on internal stack. ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Syntax
FT_PushVid() -> <nStackSize>
Arguments
None
Returns
The current size of the internal stack (i.e. the number of times FT_PushVid() has been called).
Description
Menus, picklists, browses, and other video-intensive items often require you to save certain video states -- screen image, cursor position, and so forth. Constantly saving and restoring these items can get very tedious. This function attempts to alleviate this problem. When called, it saves the cursor position, color setting, screen image, cursor style, blink setting, scoreboard setting, snow setting, and maximum row and column to a series of static arrays. All that is needed to restore the saved settings is a call to FT_PopVid().
