Skalare data types

SURFACE-KEY                                                USHORT

Fixes whether it concerns lines or surfaces. Value 0 stands for line-like element. Value 64 stands for recess / hole. All the others determine the background pattern, colour, shading, etc. of the line train or text. With DBB format on 0. 64 limits.

PSEGMENT                                                        void*

The uppermost level within the data bank are the segments. Every segment shows an entire level of the co-ordinate area. The segments have an ID and a name to the identification. The ID is an unequivocal marking in the world of Moskito. There are aloof IDs. These are bigger than the steady SPECIAL SEGMENT.

T_ERROR                                                                unsigned long int

Mistake number. ERROR_OK (0) means no mistake. The mistake constants are defined in error.h.

SIGN-KEY                                                USHORT

The sign key lays the colour, line pattern, width, etc. of a line train or text firmly. Ordinarily not 0. See also signature table. With the DBB format the values of from 1 to 255 are fixed.

USHORT                                                                unsigned short int (16 bit)

Number without portent between 0 and 65535

SYMBOL                                                                USHORT

Symbolic number as an index in the symbolic table.

KEY                                                                SHORT

KEY is planned as an object key. The values lie between 1 and 32k and are normal keys, negative values are valid in definitions as optional. 0 stands for no key.

CORNER                                                                float

Information in wheel, full circle is 2 PI.

PDKY_TABLE                                                        Pointer on DKY_TABLE

A pointer on a table with the data of an entry for sign key in the signature table.

typedef DKY_TABLE *PDKY_TABLE;
