Type on Console Printer
Subroutine TYPER will initiate typing on the console
printer, and then continue processing. Actual print-
ing time will be overlapped with other processing
(printing on the 1132, reading cards, computing,
etc.). A typical call is
CALL TYPER (INOUT, 1,50)
which will type the first 50 values of the IN OUT
array. There is no error parameter connected with
this routine.
In
addition to printing, this subroutine also per-
mits several typewriter control functions.
If
the
values listed below are inserted in the INOUT array,
the corresponding action will be performed at that
point:
Value
Action
1344
Tabulate
5184
Shift to black
13632
Shift to red
5696
Backspace
5440
Carrier return
9536
Line feed
Because TYPER does not start each line with an
automatic carrier return, you may want to place a
5440 in position 1 of the output array.

the console keyboard, Only 60 characters at a time
may be read with this routine. This activity is not

which will read 30 characters from the keyboard.
This is no error parameter.
