Interface capabilities.
The terminal responds with a string of bytes. The first byte indicates the number of status
bytes in the response (this byte does not include itself in the count). The following byte(s)
contain the requested data (figures 8-5 through 8-9).
If the
tt
x" parameter is less than -4
(-5,
-6, etc.), a single byte, the
tt@"
character (01000000), is
returned, indicating 0 status bytes. If
tt
x" is greater than 1 and the terminal contains graph-
ics, then graphics status information is returned. If the terminal does not contain graphics
and
tt
x" is an unsigned or positive number, the terminal returns its identity
(2620A).
