Each line in a ASCII file is checked if it starts with one of
the following commands (unless switch /NC is used) :
.INCLUDE:<lm>,<file>
LM = new leftmargin.
if margin = zero current margin is taken.
FILE = Include file can be an ASCII or PCX file
when EOF is encoutered, original file is
continued.
.OVERLAY:<lm>,<pcxfile>
LM = same as .INCLUDE but LM is only used
for the PCX file
FILE = A PCX file which is used at the same time
with the ASCII file.
Used for logos, signatures, maps, etc.
.LM:<lm> define new LM for ASCII files
LM position is always calculated as font 0 (16 bits)
.PL:<nolines> define new pagelength in lines
.PI:<inches> define new pagelength in inches
.SP enable short pages
.F<fontno> new font number
.FN:<fontfile> new font filename
.SC:<scale> set xy scalefactor
.SX:<scale> set x scale factor
.SY:<scale> set y scale factor
<ESC>U start underlining
<ESC>u end underlining
<ESC>P switch to 80 column font
<ESC>K switch to 96 column font
<ESC>M switch to 132 column font
Instead of using single commands starting with a . you can now also use
{% } markers in a line. Each . command and all commandline options can be used.
For instance: switching to {%132}small and switching to {%80}big font chars
and to a different font using {%fn:1,cour.fnt} etc.
