    LinearStream

    Specifies that the PutText methods stream text sequentially into one or more consecutive unprotected fields, skipping over protected fields.

    Remaining text that exceeds the current unprotected field's length extends into the next unprotected field(s), until all the text is placed on the screen.

    Mask

    Specifies that the PutText methods mask protected fields when outputting text to the screen.

    The PutText methods interpret the text as a host screen image and overlay the text into the current screen starting at the specified screen position. Where the current screen contains an unprotected field, the source string is placed in the field; where the current screen contains a protected field, that portion of the string is skipped. (Text that coincides with protected fields is not placed on the screen.)
