value for NO using a d.ddd format." The string entered by the user is used
to construct the output command. If the user enters, for example, '1.234',
the constructed command will be 'set no coef 1.234'.
' NO:21f{Code_0 Code_1 Code_2 Code_3 Code_4 Code_5 Code_6 Code_7
Code_8 Code_9 Code_10 Code_11}Lset range no %d\n
'
This is a line which appears slightly indented, the title is again 'NO', and
the value the twenty-first element of the data response, interpreted as a
floating-point number. There is a no-translation button which creates a
selection list of twelve "Code nn" options. The number of the user selection
is used to create the output command.
'Mode:6.12-13x{local remote service service}(0 1)Tset mode %s\n'
This is a line which has a title of 'Mode', and value taken from the sixth field
of the data response. There is a bitfield extraction of bits 12 through 13
from the source (the value type is not important here because the value is
being translated to an output string). Once the bits have been extracted,
they are shifted down to the bit-zero position. Thus, the possible values of
this example will be 0 through 3. The translation list shows the words which
correspond to each input value, the zeroth value appearing first (0 -> local, 1
-> remote, etc.). The selection list shows that only the first two values, in
this case, are to be shown to the user when the button is pressed. The 'T'
button indicates full translation, input code to string, and user selection
number to output string.
'\xC'
This is a line that starts a new column (the \xC or ^L),
'
Comp:6.11x{off on}Tset temp comp %s\n'
This shows that the bitfield end (the second part of a bitfield specification)
is optional. The bitfield will be one bit long, starting in this case at the
eleventh bit.
'
Background:7f*8Bd.ddd;set o3 bkg %s\n'
This shows the use of indirect precision specifiers for floating point displays.
The background value is taken from the 7th element, and the precision
specifier is taken from the 8th. If the asterisk were not present, it would
indicate instead that 8 digits after the decimal point should be displayed.
