# text_rows

Platform: | WINDOWS
Definition: | requires(WINDOWS) -- (or explicit test around calls as below) if platform()=WINDOWS then -- (if requires(WINDOWS) is not being used) integer i2 = text_rows(integer i1) end if
Description: | Set the number of lines on a text-mode screen to i1 if possible. i2 will be set to the actual new number of lines.
pwa/p2js: | Not supported
Comments: | Values of 25, 28, 43 and 50 lines are supported by most video cards. NB This is a legacy routine that only ever had any real effect after using Alt-Enter at a DOS prompt to go full screen, which I think has not been possible since Windows XP.
Implementation: | via :%opTextRows / ftext_rows() in builtins\VM\pfileioN.e (an autoinclude).
