PRINT
@ position, item list
Specifies exactly where printing is to begin. (AT was used in LEVEL I
BASIC.) The @ modifier must follow PRINT immediately, and the location
specified must be a number from 0 to 1023. Refer to the Video Display
worksheet, Appendix C, for the exact position of each location 0-1023:
100 PRINT @ 550, "LOCATION 550"
RUN this to find out where location 550 is.
Whenever you PRINT @ on the bottom line of the Display, there is an
automatic line-feed, causing everything displayed to move up one line. To
suppress this, use a trailing semi-colon at the end of the statement.
Example:
104 PRINT @ 1000, 1000;
NOTE: Be sure
not
to use a shifted @, as this will cause a syntax error.
PRINT TAB
(expression)
Moves the cursor to the specified position on the current line (modulo 64 if
you specify TAB positions greater than 63). TAB may be used several times
in a PRINT list.
The value of
expression
must be between 0 and 255 inclusive.
Example:
10 PRINT TAB(5)"TABBED 5";TAB(25)"TABBED 25"
No punctuation is required after a TAB modifier

2; TAB(X
3) X

Numerical expressions may be used to specify a TAB position. This makes
TAB very useful for graphs of mathematical functions, tables, etc. TAB
cannot be used to move the cursor to the left. If cursor is beyond the specified
position, the TAB is ignored.
