Currently, only some (but not all) of the functions of the Ramtek 9460 (1280x1024) or 9050 (512x512) Ramtek screen display are supported. The current version of the software drivers for the Ramtek display are machine specific to VAX/VMS. This Option is available only in FORTRAN.
Ramtek display drivers expect the logical name "RM" be assigned to Ramtek device (example: assign RMA0: RM:). When the Ramtek device supports multiple diplays, interaction between the displays complicates matters. To distiguish between different displays on the same device it is suggested that the 0th device be named xxx0:, second device xxx1:, etc. Color plotting is done on the Ramtek using the previously loaded color table. The LONGLIB "color" is the color table index. The default Ramtek color table index is 255. The main LONGLIB package uses only vector plotting. However, auxilary routines have been included which permit writing image mode data to the Ramtek (or REF) and for color table manipulation (see RMWRITEWORD or RMWRITECOL).
