Add one more line to the program to demonstrate one more
feature of vertical tabs.
80 LPRINT CHR$(ll) ;“FIFTHH TAB.”
Now when you run the program the first page looks just like
before, but line 80 sends one more < VT > than there are tabs.
This doesn’t confuse the printer - it advances the paper to
the next tab position, which happens to be the first tab position
on the next page. - -.
There’s a one-time vertical tab command that works just like
the one-time horizontal tab command. Try this program to
see how these commands work.
10 ’ Demo of print positions
20 LPRINT “* 1st Line, 1st Column”
30 LPRINT CHR5(27) ;“fl”;CHR$(3) ;
40 LPRINT “* 4th Line, 1st Coiumn”
