PRINT

Synopsis
PRINT thing
PR thing
(PRINT thing1 thing2 ...)
(PR thing1 thing2 ...)
Description

Prints the input or inputs to the current write stream (initially the Commander History/Output box). All the inputs are printed on a single line, separated by spaces, ending with a newline. If an input is a list, square brackets are not printed around it, but brackets are printed around sublists. Braces are always printed around arrays.

If the current write stream is a file that was opened as a text file (that is, not opened in binary mode), then PRINT writes each newline character as the Windows end-of-line sequence: a carriage return followed by a newline character.

If the current write stream is a file that was opened in binary mode, then only the lower byte of each character is printed. Furthermore, a newline character is printed simply as a newline character.

Example
PRINT "Hello
Hello
PRINT [Hello how are you]
Hello how are you
