 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(),"."
  SPRINTLN
