Synopsis

VtAddMainLoop [-break]

Description

Starts interaction between the script and the SCO Visual Tcl graphical user interface (GUI) rendering engine. Causes the script application to become active and react to user and system actions. Usually called as the last command of a script after the GUI hierarchy is displayed with VtShow(VTCL).

Return values

If VtMainLoop fails, it returns one of the following error messages:

INVALID_ARGS
wrong number of arguments, argument not recognized, or argument options not recognized
