TypStyl\qc;al3;cf4
for the DEC Rainbow\qc
and LA50 or LA100 printer\qc;al3;jf
TypStyl can justify\qm;cf1
TypStyl is a flexible, multi-featured printing program for
the Digital LA50 and similar printers. It is in
\cf3]justification \cf1] mode on 2.5 and 5.5-inch margins.\ql;ql;ql
\ms0.5",4";fl;cf4]Set type flush left . . .\ql;cf1
Now TypStyl is in \cf3]flush-left \cf1]mode. The right margins
are ragged. The margins are changed to 1/2 inch on the left
and four inches on the right. Flush-left gives a more casual
feel than justified type.\ql;ql;ql;ms4",7.5";fr;cf4
. . . or flush right\qr;cf1
The \cf3]flush-right \cf1]mode is used less frequently than
justified and flush-left type, but you may want to use it to set
blocks of copy that butt up against an illustration. You will
see flush right type used this way in magazines.\qr;ql;ql;ms2.5",5.5";rc;cf4
Centering\qc;cf1
TypStyl can also set ragged, centered type. If you want to center
only one line -- a title, for example -- use the quad center
command (QC). But there are times when a whole block of copy
looks nice centered between margins. Then use command RC.\qc;al3;jf
\ms2",6";cf4]Tabulation\qc;cf1
\in]TypStyl can also tabulate. Here we can see it tab at three,
four and five-inch settings:\st3",4",5";ql;ql
left margin\tb]three,\tb]four\tb]and five.\ql;pa;cf4
Indenting\qc;cf1
\in]Sometimes you may want to indent the left or right margin
temporarily to make room for a photograph or illustration.
\ir1",12] TypStyl will let you do this with the indent-right
and indent-left commands (IR and IL). In this paragraph, for
example, the right margin is being indented by one inch for
a depth of one inch. IR and IL are the commands to use when
indenting for \cf3]layout \cf1] purposes. If you want to
narrow the text to set off quotations or similar material,
it's best to reset the margins using the MS command.\ql;al3;cf4
. . . Lots of dots . . .\qc;cf1
\in]You may also want to create tables with flush-left and
flush-right materials, perhaps using dot leaders. Do so in
justification mode using these commands:\ql;ql
SL\dl]split line\ql
DL\dl]dot leader\qm
QL\dl]quad left\ql
QM\dl]quad middle\qm;ep
Note that either the quad left of the quad middle command is
used to end each line in dot-leader or split-line mode.\ql;ep
Also note that, in justification mode, you must end the last
line of each paragraph with a QL or an EP command to make the
line come out flush-left.\ql;ql;cf4
New features\qc;cf1;in;ls
Version 1.1 of TypStyl allows literal spacing. That means
you can leave two spaces between sentences and have them
print that way. TypStyl also now lets you string together
hyphens to form dashes like -- or --- or ---.\ql;ds;ep
TypStyl now has a double-strike mode, which allows the printer
to print lines twice, as it is doing now. On disk output files,
this uses twice as many characters.\ql;xd;ep
For this file to work properly, TypStyl should be set up to use
the backslash (\\) as the command character. If you want the
backslash to print, just type it twice.\ql
