answer-request

Generic Function

Package: common-graphics

Arguments: topic item command-result

This method is invoked when another application sends a request to the lisp DDE server. You should modify this method to return a string as appropriate for the passed-in topic and item, which will always be keyword symbols. The default method returns the null string.

The command-result argument can normally be ignored --- it contains the result of the previous command that was executed for this topic by the application that is sending this request, and is passed here for the special version of this method which returns that value when the item is :command-result.
