How to have a large policy in KSH Script

[benhurtec]

I want to have a large policy in KSH script.

Someone can help me?

I know how to do a bold

bold=`tput bold`
offbold='tput sgr 0 0'
echo "${bold}Name: ${offbold} \c"

But i don't know how to do a large character...

Check if swidm and rwidm are defined for your TERM in the terminfo database.

Hope This Helps, PH.

Is this what you're looking for?

tput swidm # to enter double wide mode
tput rwidm # to leave double wide mode

Thank you, On the other hand, I tested and it's not ok. The characters remained same size. I wonder whether it is because I do not have a version of AIX which allows it…?

...or it is not defined for your terminal type in the AIX terminfo database, or your terminal type doesn't support it.
