getframe( <page> )

Description

This requests the next broadcast frame of the specified page. The frame, when retrieved, is stored in the cache.

Frame searching will time out after 90 seconds, if nothing is found.

Notes

If you want to retrieve all the frames of a cycling page (ie, TV guide or 'letters'), you'll want to use getframes() instead.

Specifics

RISC OS will time out a frame request after 60 seconds.
