Turning Indentation On and Off

Adjusting the Text

058060 Tandem Computers Incorporated

9–19

To avoid indention problems resulting from the difference in the number of
input and output lines, be sure to leave space in the line for the indentation.
If you’re indenting only a single line, you can use the TI (Temporary
Indent) command, as explained earlier in this section.

Turning Indentation

On and Off

When you’re not sure how many lines you want to indent, you can control
indentation by using ON and OFF. Once you enter an INDENT ON
command, all lines are indented until TFORM reaches an INDENT OFF
command. You must include a value in the INDENT ON command so
TFORM knows how far to indent, but you don’t need a value in the
INDENT OFF command.

INDENT ON and INDENT OFF, with no margin indicator, refers only to
indentation from the left margin. If you want to turn on and turn off
indentation from the right margin, or from both margins, you must include
the margin indicator in the INDENT command. For example:

\INDENT ON 5
\INDENT OFF
\INDENT ON RIGHT 6
\INDENT OFF RIGHT
\INDENT ON BOTH 7
\INDENT OFF BOTH

Indents five characters
from the left

Ends left indentation

Indents six characters

from the right

Indents seven characters

from both margins
