linebody

Draft MDC Standard

6.2.5 Line body linebody

The linebody consists of an optional sequence of commands and an optional comment. Note that the comment always comes after any commands in the line (see 8.1.2 for more about comments). Individual commands are separated by one or more spaces (see 8.1.1 for more about spaces in commands). The end of the line is terminated by a CR LF character sequence.

    linebody::=


commands [ cs [ comment ] ]
[ commands cs ] extsyntax
comment



eol
    commands::= command [ cs command ] ...
    cs::= SP ...
    comment::= ; [ graphic ] ...

The use of the extsyntax form is allowed only within the context of an embedded M[UMPS] program (see 6.4 Embedded programs).
