- The /text command has the following syntax:
- /endpara
-
- /para \sa150
- /text \b,/text
- /link TEXT_FORMAT_STRINGS,text format commmands
- /text \b,, the text \line
- or \line
- /text \b,\{
- /link TEXT_FORMAT_STRINGS,text format commands
- /text \b, the text \}
- /endpara
-
- /para \sa150
- In the first syntax the format properties will be applied to
- the text found between the comma (,) and the end of the line
- which contains the /text command.
- /endpara
-
- /para \sa150
- In the second syntax the text format commands come first, then
- the text {\b NO} comma in between. The second syntax can be
- used anywhere in the text string. That is to say that it can
- be used in the middle of a text string {\b\{ \\b for bold text\}}

- Following are strings that you can add to the /text
- command to cause the string printed by the text command
- to take on special properties.
- The output of these effects will depend on the font
- in use. Since these are really RTF commands you can put
- any RTF text formatting command into this position. These
- are the most common:
- /endpara

- /link TEXT_FORMAT_EXAMPLES,Examples \line
- \\tab \tab = \tab tab character \line
- \\b \tab = \tab bold text \line
- \\i \tab = \tab italic text \line
- \\strike \tab = \tab strikethru text \line
- \\f000 \tab = \tab
- /link FONTS >second,font number
- where 000 is the font of choice. \line
- \\fs000 \tab = \tab font size in half points where 000 is the size.\line
- \\ul \tab = \tab underline text \line
- \\cf0 \tab = \tab

- The following are examples of different text formatting
- commands that you can use. It is important to note that
- the help compiler uses certain sequences of commands to
- signal links,popups etc. Results of using these commands
- on text will be unpredictable if you use a sequence that
- help has defined for its own use. This should be a very
- rare case. Consult your help compiler manual to understand
- the sequences used by the help engine.
