SYNTAX ELEMENTS

text is the text to be displayed.

+ inhibits a NEWLINE at the end of the output and leaves the cursor positioned to the right of the last character displayed. This is often used when prompting for input.

NOTES

The O command has largely been replaced by the T command which also provides cursor positioning and special display features.

If no text is supplied, a blank line will be output.
