blinking, underlined etc.) and alternative styles may be specified by combining
the following Style Masks (by ORing them together):-
UISBLI ) Blinking

- For a Text Viewport to be made visible it must be displayed via a call
to UI_DISPLAY_VIEWPORT. This may be performed either prior to, or following,
this call.
- The VPRTID Argument is optional and, if omitted, defaults to the currently
setup Viewport.
