SPRINT SEXP[,SEXP...]
SPRINTLN [SEXP[,SEXP...]
Function
Print (write) a line to the local screen (BBS) only (with an optional
newline appended).
Syntax
SPRINT exp[,exp]
-or-
SPRINTLN [exp[,exp]]
exp - An expression of any type to evaluate and write to the caller's
screen.
Remarks
These statements will evalutate zero, one or more expressions of any
type and write the results to the BBS for the SysOp's display. SPRINTLN
will append a newline to the end of the expressions; SPRINT will not.
Note that at least one expression must be specified for SPRINT, unlike
SPRINTLN which need not have any arguments passed to it. These statements
only send information to the local display and do not interpret @ codes;
however, complete ANSI sequences will be interpreted.
Examples
SPRINT "The name of the currently running PPE file is "
SPRINTLN PPENAME(),"."
SPRINT "The path where it is located is "
SPRINTLN PPEPATH(),"."
SPRINT "The date is ",DATE()," and the time is ",TIME(),"."
