blank line.
KEEP COMMAND
KEEP COMMAND keeps together all input lines between it and the
next command line.
Tips
The maximum number of lines that TFORM can keep together is one
page (the exact number depends on how you have defined your page).
TFORM treats any excess lines as though they weren’t included in the
KEEP command’s scope.
If you enter a KEEP OFF command without a preceding KEEP ON
command, TFORM issues an error message.
You mustn’t include any form of the NEW command within the scope
of a KEEP command. TFORM issues an error message and ignores the
NEW command.
The KEEP command also causes a line break.
