Hello,
I try to write a procedure to be used in
postscript file, Writeln. it should work
like the following:
GS>(line of stuffs) Writeln
GS>(another line of stuffs) Writeln
the main purpose is to avoid using "moveto"
command when you start a new line, this will
be easier for the user to modify the features
like line spaces and scale of fonts
I think the only thing we need is to define
a variable to keep track on the current row
position. is this possible?
the reason I doubt about this is I often see
many programs use the "moveto" to start a
new line, so it gives me an impression that
it will not be easy to avoid using the "moveto".
Thanks in advance!
