VIEW [[SCREEN] (x1!,y1!)-(x2!,y2!) [,[color&] [,border&]]]
 
    ■ SCREEN                 Specifies that coordinates of subsequent
                             graphics statements are absolute to the screen,
                             not relative to viewport.
    ■ (x1!,y1!)-(x2!,y2!)    Numeric expressions that are the coordinates
                             of diagonally opposite corners of the viewport.
    ■ color&                 Numeric expression that specifies the color
                             with which to fill the viewport.
    ■ border&                Any numeric expression for border causes a line
                             to be drawn around the viewport; the value of the
                             expression determines the color of the line.
 
    ■ If all arguments are omitted, the entire screen is the viewport.
