When you turn
Try this program with STAR mode to see how easy it is to change the line spacing:
NEW
10 FOR I = 1 TO 25
20 IF I = 13 THEN 50
30 LPRINT CHR$(27) "A" CHR$(I);- 48 LPRINT "This line spacing is set to" I
50 NEXT
60 LPRINT "Line spacing is set to l/6 inch (normal)." -
70 LPRINT CHR$(27) "2"
-
Line 30 changes the line spacing. The command < ESC > “A” CHR$(n) changes the line spacing to n/72 of an inch. The loop that is started in line 10 increases the value of n (the variable I in the program) each time it is executed. So the line spacing in- creases as the program continues. Line 20 just shortcuts the loop when I = 13, since BASIC won’t let us send CHR$( 13) without adding an unwanted CHR$(lO) to it. Finally, the < ESC > “2” in line 60 resets the line spacing to 6 lines per inch. This is a shortcut that is.the same as < ESC > “A” CHR$(12).
