PlainWrite                                                     FastTTT



Purpose   To write text to the screen very quickly in the default
                    color attribute.

Declaration    PlainWrite(Col, Row: byte; St: string); external;

          Col is the X coord of first char. in string (1..80)
          Row is the Y coord of string (1..25)
          St is the string or text to be displayed

Uses FastTTT.

Remarks   This procedure is external and the source code is actually
          in assembly language (see the file FastTTT.asm on the
          distribution disk, if you're interested). This procedure is
          very similar to Fastwrite but it uses the current color
          attribute for each character. It is even faster than
          Fastwrite!



Example


               USES CRT, FASTTTT
               BEGIN
                 CLEARTEXT(1,1,80,25,WHITE,BLACK);
                 PLAINWRITE(1,1,'TOP LEFT OF SCREEN');
                 PLAINWRITE(59,25,'BOTTOM RIGHT OF SCREEN;);
                 END;


The screen is cleared to a black background with a white foreground,
and the two phrases are written to the screen in white letters.
