(Print | ?) #

Writes a list of values to a file or device

Syntax
   (Print | ?) # filenum, [ expressionlist ] [ , | ; ]

Parameters
   filenum
      The file number of a file or device opened for Output or Append.
   expressionlist
      List of values to write.

Description
   Print # outputs a list of values to a text file or device. Numeric 
   values are converted to their string representation, with left padding 
   for the sign. Objects of user-defined types must overload Operator Cast 
   () As String.

   Consecutive values in the expression list are separated either by a 
   comma (,) or semicolon (;). A comma indicates printing should take place 
   at the next 14 column boundary, while a semicolon indicates values are 
   printed with no space between them.

   A new-line character is printed after the values in the expression list 
   unless the expression list is followed by a comma or semicolon.

   Note that the comma (,) immediately following the file number is still 
   necessary, even the expression list is empty.  In this case a new-line 
   is printed, just as with a normal expression list that doesn't have a 
   comma or semicolon at the end.

Example
   Open "bleh.dat"  For Output As #1
      
      Print #1, "abc def"
      Print #1, 1234, 5678.901, "xyz zzz"
      
      Close #1

Dialect Differences
   * In the -lang qb dialect, an extra space is printed after numbers.

Differences from QB
   * None, when using QBASIC's variable types in -lang qb.
   * Unsigned numbers are printed without a space before them.
   * QB did not support casting for UDTs, so didn't allow them to be Print
     ed.
