504.0. "ARGITEM Heading Change" by MARTY::FRIEDMAN () Fri Jun 12 1987 15:19

    Is there any way to change any of the default headings output by
    the following form of <ARGITEM>? 
    
    <ARGITEM>(zone_id\longword\longword(unsigned)\read_only\by reference)

    The headings output are:
    
    VMS USAGE:
    TYPE:
    ACCESS:
    MECHANISM:
    
    We would like to change only the first one.

    Thanks,
        
    Marty

504.1DESIGN changesCLOSET::ANKLAMFri Jun 12 1987 16:3113
    
    A local DESIGN file can override these as follows:
    
    \def\RTNtextone{default-heading-first-arg}
    \def\RTNtexttwo{default-heading-second-arg}
    etc.
    
    If changing the first argument causes the two columns to be too
    close together, you can also change
    
    \def\RTNlongesttext{default-heading-first-arg}

    Gee, are these formats supposed to be used only by VMS? I would
    rather not have to make a local doctype (thought this was getting
    out of hand). Could this be made user-settable? Or at least could
    the documentation say "for use by VMS only?"
    
    Thanks.

    I'll put it on the wishlist. Part of the rationale for leaving it
    at the doctype level is that these items are not only specific,
    but they *must* appear in all descriptions, and the use must be
    standardized.
