☜ | Effect on $X and $Y1995 Version of ANSI (Equivalent to Current ISO Version) of Standard | ☞ |
Below follows a list of control-functions (X3.64) or controlmnemonics (M) that have an effect on the special variables $X or $Y or both. Since some definitions in X3.64 are fairly open-ended, the exact effect may be implementation dependent in some cases. In section 3.4 these open-ended definitions are listed resolution of possible ambiguities are stated.
The relevant controlmnemonics are:
/CBT(n) | $X | |
/CHA(x) | $X | |
/CHT(n) | $X | |
/CNL(n) | $X, $Y | |
/CPL(n) | $X, $Y | |
/CUB(n) | $X | |
/CUD(n) | $Y | |
/CUF(n) | $X | |
/CUP(y,x) | $X, $Y | |
/CUU(n) | $Y | |
/CVT(n) | $Y | |
/HPA(x) | $X | |
/HPR(n) | $X | |
/HTJ | $X | |
/HVP(y,x) | $X, $Y | |
/IND | $Y | |
/NEL | $X, $Y | |
/PLD | $Y | |
/PLU | $Y | |
/REP(n) | $X, $Y | |
/RI | $Y | |
/RIS | $X=0, $Y=0 | |
/VPA(y) | $Y | |
/VPR(n) | $Y |
The control-function REP repeats the previous character or function as many times as indicated by its argument. Hence, the side-effects of this function do not depend on this function itself, but rather on the character or function that is being repeated.
