Command Definitions (MAIL-PUTJCW)
NLFMTNUM
They must be the character(s) in
instring
. Even if insertion (of the
separators) is specified in
fmtmask
, the thousands and decimal separators
are still valid characters in the input. In this case, they are substituted. If
no justification is specified, the output is right-justified with the same
number of trailing spaces as the input. If the output is truncated, it is
left-truncated.
NOTE
For languages written right-to-left, trailing spaces in the input are preserved
as leading spaces in the output.
