Hi Ann,
Good question.
In very simple terms, [p] means begin a new paragraph, so start of a new line
and begin in cell 3. Unless of course you have a code earlier in the document
to charge the way new paragraphs are treated.
For example, you might have used the code [svprg6] which would then begin the
new paragraph in cell 6. Hence, if you use the [p] code, later in the
document, the following paragraph would also begin in cell 6.
However, if you use the para. Style instead, the paragraph would be treated in
whatever way the Para. Style was set up.
I've copied the Codes Quick Reference explanations below.
George.
[p] -- Begin new paragraph, with possible line skip and/or indent according to
current default settings (see [svprg...]). (In braille files, this is usually a
new line, beginning at cell 3. In print files, this is usually a line skip
only.)
[svprgN:L:M] -- Set paragraph treatment values, i.e. the parameters for the [p]
command. N determines the position at which to begin a new paragraph; the
default value is 3 for braille and 0 for print. L determines how many lines to
skip before a paragraph; the default is 0 for braille and 1 for print. M is 0
(the default) if N is to be an absolute position, or is 1 if N is to be
relative to the current left margin (i.e. the left margin reckoned as position
1). If all values are omitted, the values are reset to their values at the
beginning of the file.
