INITSUP()

  Short:
  ------
  INITSUP() Sets SuperLib system interface vars for MONO or COLOR

  Returns:
  --------
  Nothing

  Syntax:
  -------
  INITSUP([lMakePublic])

  Description:
  ------------
  Checks SLS_ISCOLOR(), and calls SATTCOLOR() or
  SATTMONO() appropriately, to set to default color or mono color
  sets. This is only done the first time INITSUP() is called.

  If [lMakePublic] is True (default), the old style
  SuperLib PUBLIC variables are declared and set to their
  corresponding values based on the new SLS_*() and SLSF_*()
  functions. This is to help with conversion, but be sure to
  change any reference to the old style PUBLIC variables to the
  new function calls, as the PUBLICs will not be an option in the
  next SuperLib.

  Each time INITSUP() is called with (True), the values
  in the PUBLIC variables are reset from their SLS_*() and
  SLSF_*() counterparts. The PUBLIC declaration is only done
  once.

  Examples:
  ---------
   INITSUP(.f.)  // do not initialize publics

  Notes:
  -------
  This is mainly here for compatibility with older
  versions, where INITSUP() was everywhere. INITSUP() previously
  set up the PUBLIC variables for use by SuperLib. The PUBLIC
  variable set have now been replaced by the SET/ACCESS function
  scheme in S_ATTRIB.PRG. INITSUP()'s previous duties have been
  replaced by the functions:

    SLSF_*()
    SLS_*()
    SATT*()

  See the APPENDIX for upgrading guidance.
