Howtheprogram works

This program begins by assigning a number of printer commands to BASIC string variables (lines 1000to 1090). Youcan find most ofthese commands near the beginning ofAppendix B.

The WIDTH “LPT1:” 255 statement in line lllOmeansintinite line width. It prevents the IBM-PC from inserting unwanted carriage returns and line feeds in graphics data.

Actual printing begins in line 1120. Using the preassigned commands, the program prints samples of its different type styles, including a line showing all styles in italics, followed by samples of the print pitches, then some double and quadruple-sized printing.

Next comes the central attraction oftheprogram: aline oftext printed twenty times in expanding and contracting loops to give a barrel effect. Thework isdone by four printer commands: acommand setting the right margin (line 1400);a centering command (line 1420);acommand to vary the line spacing (lines 1440and1490); and acommand to micro-adjust the space between characters (lines 1450and 1500).
