Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

 :p.
 
The :p tag starts a new paragraph. The tag breaks the current line, skips a
line, then continues subsequent text on the next line. The :p tag is often
used immediately after lists, figures, and other constructions to provide
space between the construction and subsequent text.
 
This tag does not use parameters.
 
Example
 
This example uses the :p tag to create a paragraph and to insert space at
the end of a list:
 
    When you finish copying files to a disk, remove the disk.

    To remove a disk
    :ol.
    :li.Open drive door.
    :li.Remove disk.
    :li.Put disk in safe place.
    :eol.
    :p.
    You can always restore your files by copying them back from
    the disk.
 
When displayed, the example looks like this:
