Monarch 9460 manual R S E, Parse invalid label , valid label

Page 88

P A R S E

Purpose

Processes an MPCL data stream in the scratch buffer.

Syntax

PARSE [ [ invalid label ] [, valid label ] ]

Process

The PARSE command invokes the printer's MPCL parser to analyze and process

 

the scratch buffer's contents.

 

In general, the PARSE command will out perform (speed to label out) the PRINT

 

command. If you have the option of using either command (PARSE or PRINT),

 

PARSE is the better option.

NOTE:

You must place an MPCL data stream in the scratch buffer before calling this

 

command.

 

Avoid using the PARSE command to send individual characters; use the CONCAT

 

command to append data into the scratch buffer. Then send all the data at once

 

using the PARSE command.

Optional Fields

Invalid and valid labels are discussed in "Script Flow" at the beginning of this

 

chapter.

Example

This example moves an MPCL data stream to the scratch buffer, then processes

 

the data stream.

 

MOVE "{F,1,A,N,E,200,200,”FMT1”¦”, SCRATCH

 

CONCAT "C,146,50,0,10,2,1,B,L,0,0,"PAT'S PARTS",1¦", SCRATCH

 

CONCAT "T,1,10,V,100,50,0,1013,3,1,B,L,0,0,1¦", SCRATCH

 

CONCAT "T,2,15,V,80,25,0,10,1,1,B,L,0,0,1¦", SCRATCH

 

CONCAT "L,V,67,1,0,180,10,"" ¦", SCRATCH

 

CONCAT "B,3,12,F,12,43,1,2,50,1,L,0¦}", SCRATCH

 

PARSE

NOTE:

You cannot nest double quotes. You must use ~034 instead of a double quote. In

 

the above example, use ~034FMT1~034 for "FMT1".
