# - Column Ruler

To display column numbers across the screen.

Command

Action

The Column Ruler command displays column numbers across the screen directly below the current line.

The Status/Command Line displays:

Remove RULER? :Y

If you press N for no, the ruler remains on the screen. Any other response erases the ruler.

If you elected to have the ruler remain on the screen and later want to remove it, return to the line where you first entered the Column Ruler command and execute the command again. This time, press RETURN at the Remove RULER? :Y prompt.

Example

00010 DIM VAR(10); MAT VAR=""
00011 PRINT "COL1     COL2     COL3     COL4"
00012 GOSUB 500
00013 GOTO 100

Press #. The resultant display is:

00010 DIM VAR(10); MAT VAR=""
00011 PRINT "COL1     COL2     COL3     COL4"
1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890
         1         2         3         4         5         6         7

Note that lines 12 and 13 were blanked to make way for the ruler. When the ruler is removed, the lines are restored.
