HEADER The HEADER command describes the structure and content of the header
line or lines that may appear at the top of a page. You can have as many as
ten headers on a page (or as few as none, which is the default). You can
define different headers for odd-numbered pages, even-numbered pages,
and the first page of a document.

int
specifies which header line, 1 through 10, is being defined. If you omit
int , TFORM assumes you are defining the topmost header line (header
line 1). Header line 2 appears below header line 1; header line 10 is
farthest from the top of the page.
title
is a one-, two-, or three-field entity, depending on how you enter it. Its
syntax appears as
" [ text ] [ | [ text ] [ | [ text ] ] ] "
TFORM recognizes the vertical bars (|) as the field delimiters,
which divide the title into left, center, and right fields. TFORM left-
justifies any field to the left of the first delimiter (or if you omit both
delimiters), centers any field positioned between the vertical bars,
and right-justifies any field to the right of the second delimiter.
Fields may be empty or space-filled, and you can use any
combination of the one, two, or three fields. Enclose a title in
quotation marks.
