Command Shortcuts
TFORM offers two shortcuts to entering commands. You can:
Use abbreviations for command names
Enter more than one command on a single line
To abbreviate commands and qualifiers, enter only the first three letters.
For example:
\STY MAR BOT 1
\SET SPA 2
\CEN ON
\CEN OFF
\IND 3 LEF 5
When you enter multiple TFORM commands on one line, only the first
command on the line is preceded by the backslash. Separate all the
commands with semicolons:
\STYLE MAR TOP 1; STYLE MAR BOT 1; SET SPACING 2;
SET JOIN ON
Note
The COMMENT command is an exception to this rule. See “Adding Comments” in
Section 11 for more information on this command.
Default Settings
Defaults are preset values or conditions that are automatically in effect,
unless you override them by turning them off or by entering different
values. Some TFORM commands are in effect by default or have default
settings. If you send a file to the printer that doesn’t contain any TFORM
commands, it’s printed using these defaults. The defaults are summarized
in Table 7-2.
