Summary
Specifies that a given text stream should be 'greeked' when the screen is redrawn. Greeked text is drawn as grey boxes and can significantly improve the speed of operation of Arbortext APP when many streams are involved (e.g. in a newspaper layout).
Example extract

The following macro 'greeks' the contents of the current text stream, and then redraws the screen.

 ttgreek:wdr

Syntax (SVNNA)
ttgreek  on_off:o?  stream_name:t?
on_off:o

Turns 'greeked' text on and off.

stream_name:t
Ø  Defaults to the text stream with the text cursor in it. If a stream name is specified only that stream will be affected.

The ttgreek command should be followed by a wdr macro to redraw the screen.

Example

The example below specifies that stream "strm0" should be greeked. The screen is then redrawn with the wdr macro.

 ttgreek "strm0":wdr
