getfrm(1F) FMLI Commands getfrm(1F)NAMEgetfrm - returns the current frameID number
SYNOPSISgetfrmDESCRIPTIONgetfrm returns the current frameID number. The frameID number is a num‐
ber assigned to the frame by FMLI and displayed flush left in the
frame's title bar. If a frame is closed its frameID number may be
reused when a new frame is opened. getfrm takes no arguments.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample of the getfrm command.
If a menu whose frameID is 3 defines an item to have this action
descriptor:
action=open text stdtext `getfrm`
the text frame defined in the definition file stdtext would be passed
the argument 3 when it is opened.
NOTES
It is not a good idea to use getfrm in a backquoted expression coded on
a line by itself. Stand-alone backquoted expressions are evaluated
before any descriptors are parsed, thus the frame is not yet fully cur‐
rent, and may not have been assigned a frameID number.
