Text Entry

The Text Entry (TE) Line Command formats the screen with an unnumbered open text area which may be used without regard for line overflow. The cursor is positioned at the beginning of the first line and the remainder of the screen is blank. After you type the data and press the Enter key, the text is flowed into a paragraph format.

If you type a number after the TE Command, open the text entry area provided for only that number of lines. Use the following syntax:

TE = number-of-lines

where:

number-of-lines—specifies the number of blank lines requested.

For examples of Text Entry Command examples, see the online documentation.
