*N (KEYIN and DISPLAY)


ANSI

*N[={count}]

 

The *N list control moves the cursor to the beginning of the next row. This is the same as executing both an *C and an *L. If the cursor is on the bottom line of the screen when an *N is executed, the screen may roll up one line.

 

The *N={count} list control moves the cursor to the beginning of the line and down {count} rows. This is the equivalent of executing both an *C and an *L={count}. This control may cause the screen to roll if {count} is greater than the number of lines remaining on the screen. {count} may be a decimal constant, an Expression a numeric variable, or an equated variable.
