High-Level Screen Management Intrinsic Library (Hi-Li) Reference Manual

Sample Programs 

The following is a sample application program that illustrates how the
various Hi-Li intrinsics are used to develop an interactive application.
The same program is developed for three of the languages supported by
Hi-Li:  COBOL, FORTRAN, and Pascal.

This sample application collects transactions concerning deductions from
an employee payroll and places the edited transactions into a file.  Each
transaction entered by the operator is subject to the data edits embedded
within the input form.  The application continues to collect transactions
until the operator exits the program or a system error is detected.
Keys are defined as follows:

Enter key = edit and file transaction
 F1 = exit application
All other  f keys = redo transaction

The application has the following structure:
