LONGform
This example checks the current format for query responses from the
oscilloscope, and places the result in the string variable, Result$. Then, it prints
the contents of the variable to the computer's screen.

DIM Result$[50]!Dimension variable

OUTPUT 707;":SYSTEM:LONGFORM?"

ENTER 707;Result$

LONGform Does Not Affect Input Headers and Arguments
LONGform has no effect on input headers and arguments sent to the instrument. You
may send headers and arguments to the oscilloscope in either the long form or
short form, regardless of the current state of the :SYSTem:LONGform command.
