Form Examples and Exercises

Directory Example

The Directory command lists the contents of the IGP/PGL directory in the

printer system. The directory command provides the following information:

All form names currently defined
All logo names currently defined
The association of logos to forms
The amount of memory used for form storage
The amount of dynamic storage space used and available

A form will not execute unless enough room exists in the memory as

indicated in the work space bytes free portion of the directory listing. To

print the directory, open a file, input the directory command, exit the file, and

print.

For example (see Figure 6–14):

Enter Format

DIRECT.FOM

(System Format)

~DIRECTORY (cc)DIRECTORY

PRINT DIRECT.FOM

(System Format)

The Directory command can only be used when the IGP/PGL is in the

Normal mode. Upon completion of the directory listing, the IGP/PGL returns

to the Normal mode. If the IGP/PGL is not in the Normal mode, input the

Normal mode command before the Directory command.
