<h2>Syntax</h2>

<dl>
<dt>(terpri [<i>dest</i>])</dt>
<dd><i>dest</i> - an optional destination, must be a file pointer or
stream, default is <a href="global-standard-output.htm">*standard-output*</a><br>
returns - <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a></dd>
</dl>

<h2>Description</h2>

<p>The 'terpri' function prints a new-line to the specified 'destination'
This will terminate the current print line for 'destination'.
<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> is always returned as the result. The
'destination' may be a file pointer or a stream. If there is no
'destination', <a href="global-standard-output.htm">*standard-output*</a> is the
default.</p>

<h2>Examples</h2>

<pre class="example">
(terpri)                                 <font color="#008844">; prints  #\Newline</font>

(setq f (open "pr" :direction :output))  <font color="#008844">; create a file</font>
(princ "hi" f)                           <font color="#008844">; returns "hi"</font>
(princ 727 f)                            <font color="#008844">; returns 727</font>
(princ "ho" f)                           <font color="#008844">; returns "ho"</font>
(terpri f)                               <font color="#008844">; returns NIL</font>
(close f)                                <font color="#008844">; file contains hi727ho#\Newline</font>
</pre>

<p><b>Common Lisp:</b> Common Lisp specifies that print operations with a
'destination' of <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> will go to
<a href="global-standard-output.htm">*standard-output*</a>. XLISP does not send the
output to <a href="global-standard-output.htm">*standard-output*</a> with a
'destination' of <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a>. Common Lisp also
specifies that a 'destination' of
<a href="t.htm">&nbsp;T&nbsp;</a> will be sent to
*terminal-io*, which is not defined in XLISP by default. XLISP does not
allow <a href="t.htm">&nbsp;T&nbsp;</a> as a valid argument
for 'destination'.</p>

<p>See the
<a href="../manual/xlisp-man-027.htm#terpri">terpri</a>
function in the <nobr>XLISP 2.0</nobr> manual.</p>
