Display Commands
LINE
LINE
Command :DISPlay:LINE "<string_argument>"
The :DISPlay:LINE command writes a quoted string to the screen, starting at
the location specified by the :DISPlay:ROW and :DISPlay:COLumn commands.
When using the C programming language, quotation marks as shown in the
example delimit a string.
<string
_argument>
Any series of ASCII characters enclosed in quotation marks.
Example
This example writes the message “Infiniium Test” to the screen, starting at the
current row and column location.
10 OUTPUT 707;":DISPLAY:LINE ""Infiniium Test"""
20 END
This example writes the message "Infiniium Test" to the screen using C.
Quotation marks are included because the string is delimited.
printf("\"Infiniium Test\"");
You may write text up to column 94. If the characters in the string do not fill
the line, the rest of the line is blanked. If the string is longer than the space
available on the current line, the excess characters are discarded.
In any case, the ROW is incremented and the COLumn remains the same. The
next :DISPlay:LINE command will write on the next line of the display. After
writing the last line in the display area, the ROW is reset to 0.
