 SAYDOWN()
 Displays screen output downward and vertically
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Syntax

     SAYDOWN(<cCharacterstring>, [<nDelay>], [<nLine>],
        [<nColumn>]) --> cNull

 Arguments

     <cCharacterstring>  Designates vertical output for the string.

     <nDelay>  Designates that the time delay is set in milliseconds.
     The default value is 4.

     <nLine>  Designates from which line to begin the output.  The
     default is the cursor line.

     <nColumn>  Designates from which column to begin the output.  The
     default is the cursor column.

 Returns

     SAYDOWN() always returns a null string.

 Description

     SAYDOWN() allows you to have a particular affect on a string output.
     The output is done vertically, downward from the current or selected
     cursor position, and can have a time delay between individual
     characters.  When the last line of the screen is reached, the function
     outputs one more character and then terminates.  The SET COLOR TO
     setting is used as an attribute.  The current cursor position is not
     changed with this function.

 Note

     .  Control characters such as with @...SAY commands in CA-
        Clipper, are not interpreted.

 Example

     Show vertical output from line 10, column 10, with a 100-millisecond
     time delay between characters:

     SAYDOWN("Clipper", 100, 10, 10)
     Line 10: C
              L
              I
              P
              P
              E
              R
