Would someone tell me how to use SCPOS from Lisp?
You're asking us??
See .INFO.;LISP NEWIO and .INFO.;LISP CURSOR for descriptions of cursor
position control in Maclisp. -kmp
SCPOS is not cursor position control. If DEVON really wants to use SCPOS
(and he should read the documentation produced by doing :CALL SCPOS if he
hasn't already), he should do (SYSCALL 2 'SCPOS HPOS VPOS -1), which
will return a list of the old HPOS and VPOS. Note that this merely tells
ITS where the cursor is, and doesn't move it. DEVON may well be wanting
exactly this.
