Changing Status Bar and State Messages

Any string QuickWin produces can be changed by calling SETMESSAGEQQ with the appropriate message ID. Unlike other QuickWin message functions, SETMESSAGEQQ uses regular Fortran strings, not null-terminated C strings. For example, to change the PAUSED state message to I am waiting:

  USE IFQWIN
  CALL SETMESSAGEQQ('I am waiting', QWIN$MSG_PAUSED)

This function is useful for localizing your QuickWin applications for countries with different native languages. A list of message IDs is given in SETMESSAGEQQ in the Language Reference in the Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler User and Reference Guides.
