text
infile
is the primary input file, an edit-format document file. If you omit the
IN parameter, TFORM accepts input from your terminal keyboard.
outfile
is the file, device, or process (usually the spooler) to which TFORM
sends your document. If you omit the OUT parameter, TFORM sends
its output to your terminal screen.
command
is a TFORM command to be executed before any commands in the
input file. You can enter multiple commands, separated by semicolons.
The first command begins with a backslash (\) character; following
ones don’t. There must be no spaces separating the .forwardslash (/)
that closes the RUN command proper and the backslash (\) trigger
character of the TFORM command.
text
is any text you want to be printed before the text in the input file. Text
is limited to one line.
