Enable/Disable Terminal Form OPTION

PURPOSE: The TERMINAL FORM option allows the system to send form-feed characters literally, or to simulate them with line-feeds. A terminal that is capable of hardware form-feeding should have this option ENABLE.

Syntax

{ENABLE; DISABLE} TERMINAL FORM [IF; UNLESS clause]

ENABLE	instructs the system to send form-feeds to the terminal.
DISABLE	instructs the system to simulate form-feeds with a number of line-feeds.
IF; UNLESS clause	specifies certain criteria that must be met for the ENABLE or DISABLE command to take effect.

EXAMPLE

*ENABLE TERMINAL FORM

*DISABLE TERMINAL FORM

NOTES: The default state is either (1) that which is in effect when ACCENT R is started up or, (2) that which is established when changing the terminal type by setting a value to @TERMINAL_INDEX.

The TERMINAL options can be used in Process Modules (PM) and Command Modules (CM).
