TYPE WRITER ----------- This program mimics the action of a typewriter. Each character typed at the keyboard is stored until either the buffer is full or the ENTER key (CRLF) is pressed. The text will then be printed by the printer which must be connected to the computer's parallel (Centronics interface). It does have one distinct advantage over a typewriter and that is that the last character typed is always available for deletion by pressing the DEL key. This program may be used with CTRL.COM to produce some interesting documents. You could, for example, start in enlarged character mode and finish with condensed mode simply by exiting 'TYPE' running 'CTRL' and re-entering 'TYPE'. If your printer has a buffer it is advisable to clear the buffer before using 'CTRL' to program in another code. One reason for doing this is that it ensures no trapped characters are printed and also that your new control code has the authority to override the last CTRL code. e.g. by turning off or resetting the printer you know the printer will accept the new code. ALWAYS exit the program by pressing followed by +, this ensures that all text is sent to the printer prior to exiting the program. + by itself terminates the program without up-dating the printer.
