commands are used:
SPACE spaces 10 blank lines before the first text lines.
DBL double spaces text until reaching DBL OFF command.

with the TODAY command before attaching the TODAY
option with the FOOT, SUBHEAD, or HEAD command.

numbering sequence.

to print today’s date in the long, world format.

OUTLEN.
