Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     HOLDVIEW with no parameter specifies an infinite time. In this
     case, a keystroke will return control to the Animator. If
     specified, the parameter indicates the number of seconds
     before control is automatically returned to Animator.
 
     This is necessary when the user program is running in a different
     session, as Animator no longer has control and using a keystroke
     to terminate it will affect the keyboard buffer of the user session.
