Carriage control
Burroughs carriage control does not have a character representative
but, rather, is represented by a bit pattern in the IOCW. Refer to table
9-1 for the carriage control actions induced by each of the carriage
control codes. Pre-job forms alignment is to top of form; the default
for an invalid carriage control is to print and space one line.
The processing parameters for large Burroughs carriage control are
as follows:
Table 9-1. Burroughs B6700 carriage control (IOCW*)

means “no print.”
*IOCW is the input/output control word.
