CBL_WRITE_SCR_CHATTRS

The CBL_WRITE_SCR_CHATTRS library routine writes a string of characters and their attributes to the screen.

This routine is implemented for compatibility with other COBOLs in order to facilitate migrations. Using this routine in new programs is not suggested; you should rely on DISPLAY and ACCEPT verbs instead.
