OpenVMS Freeware (VS0185)
This demo displays a multicolor wheel rotating in a resizable
window. The various colormap and window options are detailed
below.
** NOTE **
You must have the logical name DEMOS defined to point to the top
level directory that contains the COLORWHEEL directory. All
command procedures rely on this being defined. For example if
all the COLORWHEEL files are in WORK:[SMITH.COLORWHEEL] then you
need a logical name defined as follows:
$ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXECUTIVE DEMOS WORK:[SMITH.]
** Ensure you include the "." after the last directory name **
