dattribute

Introduced in the 1995 ANSI M[UMPS] Windowing Application Programmer’s Interface standard.

This metalanguage symbol represents a display attribute. Such an attribute is identified by an expression that evaluates to one of "BCOLOR", "CLIPBOARD", "COLOR", "COLORTYPE", "FCOLOR", "FOCUS", "KEYBOARD", "PEN", "PLATFORM", "PRESOURCE", "PTR", "SIZE", "SPECTRUM", "TYPEFACE", "UNITS", or to an implementation-specific value (starts with "Z"), or to an application-specific value (starts with "Y").

To be modified in a future M[UMPS] Windowing Application Programmer’s Interface.

The values "FFACE", "FSIZE", "FSTYLE", "PTYPE", "TBCOLOR" and "TFCOLOR" are added to the list of possible attribute codes.
