SET SEQUENCING Option
The SET SEQUENCING command allows you to number one or more
lines of your printed output.
SET SEQUENCING ON
This command causes TFORM to print a sequence number to the
right of each text line, starting with 1 at the point where the
command occurs, then starting over with 1 at the top of each page.
These are the sequence numbers of the lines on a given page, not
the original edit line numbers in the input file.
At least 5 (6, if there are more than 99 lines on a page) character
positions must be available in the right margin for sequence
numbering to function.
SET SEQUENCING OFF
This command turns off the sequence numbering. It is also the
default condition, resetting the numbering to 1.
If you start sequencing lines on one page, stop, then resume
sequencing on the same page, the sequence numbers for both sets
of lines will begin at 1.
