GetPattern$ FUNCTION

 Action
 Returns a string that can be used by BASIC as a pixel pattern.


 Syntax
 GetPattern$(bits%, patternNum%)

 Remarks
 The GetPattern$ and MakeChartPattern$ procedures are used in combination
 with the GetPaletteDef and SetPaletteDef procedures to change the fill
 pattern for pie, column, and bar charts. GetPattern$ constructs a value for
 refPattern$, which is one of the arguments used by MakeChartPattern$.
 The GetPattern$ procedure uses the following arguments.

 Parameter      Description

 bits%          Use 2 for screen mode 1, 8 for screen mode 13, and 1 for all
 other screen modes.
 patternNum%    An integer between one and cPalLen.
