NAME
sb_defaults - Starbase defaults file.
DESCRIPTION
A defaults file contains information about the fonts loaded during a
gopen, and what the text switching mode is after a gopen occurs. Note
that this set of fonts and text switching mode are overridden by
calling designate_character_set, text_switching_mode, and
text_font_index. The defaults file has the following structure.

End of Comments 10 or more successive hyphens on a line
Text font index an integer that selects the initial font index
Text switching mode an integer that selects initial text switching mode
g0 character set usascii character set is set into G-set 0
g1 character set hproman character set is set into G-set 1
g2 character set usascii character set is set into G-set 2
g3 character set hproman character set is set into G-set 3
When a gopen is executed, Starbase searches for a defaults files in
the following order;
$SB_DEFAULTS
A defaults file can be specified by the $SB_DEFAULTS environment
variable. This is convenient for application-specific defaults.
$HOME/.sb_defaults
A defaults file may be located at $HOME/.sb_defaults. This
provides user-specific defaults.
/usr/lib/starbase/defaults
/usr/lib/starbase/defaults is for system defaults.
The structure of the defaults file depends on the value of text
switching mode. When the text switching mode is ISO 7- or 8-bit, all
four character sets must be specified. For example, the defaults file
supplied with Starbase looks like this:

When the text switching mode is HP 8-bit, only the g0 and g1 character
sets need to be specified. For example:

1 # text font index
2 # text switching mode (HP 8-bit)
japanese # g0 character set
korean # g1 character set
When text switching mode is HP 8-bit and the g0 character set is an
EUC codeset (such as japanese.euc), then the g1, g2, and g3 character
sets do not need to be set. For example:
