Since ReadyScript uses common punctuation marks as actual programming instructions, you need to insert a symbolic command in the text where a comma or an equal sign, for example, appears in the actual text to be formatted. Also, since ReadyScript is based on the ASCII character set, it does not recognize hidden symbols, such as the tabs or typographic symbols normally produced by using the Option key on the Mac keyboard.
The following commands allow you to insert a symbol or other special character into the text of a ReadyScript file. When the script is interpreted, the appropriate symbol or character is substituted for the command.
<RET>Return
<TAB>Tab
<EMS>Em-space
<ENS>En-space
<THS>Thin space
<FXS>Fixed space
<NBLK>Next block (column break)
<DH>Discretionary hyphen.
<OPDQ>Open double quote
<CLDQ>Close double quote
<OPSQ>Open single quote
<CLDQ>Close single quote
<APOS>Apostrophe
<EQL>Equal sign
<CLN>Colon
<GT>Greater than symbol
<LT>Less than symbol
<EMD>Em-dash
<END>En-dash
<OPB>Open curly bracket
<CLB>Close curly bracket
<NWLN>New line
