You will note that this program avoids the printer's double-parenthesis
commands. To change colours, for example, it uses the escape sequence
E$: "r"; CHR$(n),
where E$ is predefined as CHR$(27), instead of the
equivalent command ((C))n. The double-parenthesis commands are great
for embedding in documents, but they are less convenient in programs. In
their simplest form they cannot be listed; instead of listing them, the printer
executes them.
