1. Basic Syntax Rule

1.1 Texts and Lines

The script program consists of several lines. A line consists of text which starts either a statement

or label, and the end of the line (page break).

Length of one line (maximum number of enterable characters)

A line ends when the maximum number of one-byte characters of 126 or maximum number of

enterable characters have been entered, or by hitting the return key.

Labels

Labels are used in cases such as a program divergence.
Example: GOTO

DISP@

DISP@DP”A”
Labels are indicated by upper case alphabets or numerals added with @.
Following a label, texts are described at the end of the line or after a one-byte space.

Description of Texts

Upper case alphabets are used for the characters to describe statements in a text.
In cases where statement, labels, variables and constants are lined together, they must be

separated by a one-byte space.
A line cannot contain more than two complex sentences.
Example:

[Wrong]

IFA = lTHEN

GOTO

DISP@

ENDIF

[Correct]

IF_A = 1_THEN

GOTO_DISP@
ENDIF

(The underscore (_) is a one-byte space)

1.2 Character Set

Usable characters are one-byte alphanumeric characters and special characters.
Kana or Chinese characters cannot be used.

• Alphabets: Upper case - ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

Lower case - abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

Lower case can be used for DP statements and comments.

• Numerals:

0123456789

• Special characters:

(one-byte space) !”# $%”( )*+,–./:;<=>?@[\]{}−|
