- KwikWrite
-
- This document puts the KwikWrite processor through its
- paces to show you how your printer will behave. First, we
- will cover some commands which may or may not be supported
- by your printer.
-
- .emp'turns emphasize on
- Emphasized type, turned on by the command ".EMP", when
- supported by your printer, causes type to appear darker
- than normally.
- .nem'turns emphasized off
-
- .dou'turns double on
- Double strike, signaled by ".DOU" may cause your printer
- to strike a character twice, giving a heavy character.
- .nod'turns double off
-
- .wid
- .cen
- Centered Wide
-
- .wid
- Wide type (.WID), when supported by your printer, is
- generally twice as wide as normal type. Note that it lasts
- for only line.
-
- .jus
- .com'turns compressed on
- .cen
- Centered Compressed
-
- Compressed type, when supported, (.COM) causes the printer
- to print in smaller characters than normal. Notice that this
- may effect the position of the margins.
- .noc'turns compressed off
- .s
- .bol
- .cen
- Centered Bold
- .bol'turns bold on
- BOLD TYPE
- .bre
-
- Bold type (.BOL) may be supported, and is also turned off
- after one line is printed.
-
- .title.h 4;
- This is a 4 line title (2 lines are blank)

- .just 'tells processor to begin justifying text
- .lm 20
- Left and right margin may be set with the commands ".LM #"
- and ".RM #", where # is the column of the margin setting.
- You may instruct the processor to justify text between
- these margins with the ".JUST" command.
-
- .par
- Paragraphing is performed with the ".PAR" command. You may
- also set negative indents for paragraphing with the ".IND
- #" command.
-
- .ind -5
- .par
- A negative indent, called an "undent", makes it easy to set
- the first part of a paragraph out to the left for a
- different emphasis. This makes numbering of pargraphs easy
- too.
- .s
- .par
- NOTE: Keep in mind that some of these commands react
- differently on different printers. The KwikWrite manual
- (appendix) explains how specific printers are supported.
- .s
- .lm 10
- Titles may be set with the ".TITLE " command. Once set they
- will appear at the top of each page as it occurs. There are
- various options associated with the title and ".page"
- command.
-
- Prompt for an entry causes the printer to pause, and wait
- for you to enter one line of text, so you can do runtime
- entry of text.
-
- .bold
- .PROMPT Please enter your name and press ENTER:
-
- .spa 2
- The command ".SPA 2" causes the processor to begin double
- spacing. Triple spacing is ".SPA 3", and single spacing
- may be returned to with ".spa 1"
- .spa 1
- .s
- KwikWrite is a program that really performs (notice the
- underline and bold - if supported by your printer).
- .s
- .wid
- .cen
