Comments:

Set the left margin to n columns in the current character size. Settings made in the proportional mode are treated as 10 cpi. This command clears previous tab settings and all previous characters in the print line. Use lowercase 1 (as in left), not the numeral one. The minimum space between the margins is the width of one double-width 10 cpi character.

This setting can also be performed by SelecType. Overrides the SelecType LEFT MARGIN setting.
