how to create window and send data to it

Trevor1981

 Hi,

I'm new to skill and have probably a very simple issue with it. I need to create a window and send some data to it, so in short my code should do something like that:

w_id = hiOpenWindow( ...)

fprintf(w_id "blah blah")

fprintf(w_id "more blah blah")

Obviously, fprintf is not the right command for this task as it accepts 'port' type variable and not the window handle.

Does anyone know how to achieve it in SKILL? Thanks for your help. 

Regards,

 T.

    try using hiDisplayAppDbox.

    ex..                 hiDisplayAppDBox( ?name 'areabox ?dboxBanner "Polygon Area" 
                                                           ?dboxText sprintf( nil,"The Polygon Area is %1.3f",totalarea ) 
                                                           ?dialogType hicInformationDialog ?buttonLayout 'Close )
