More about ::SHE+ILA::'s ttyout () functionality

The ttyout() function in ::SHE+ILA:: resembles cout in C++ or printf() in ordinary C, and PRINT in BASIC or Fortran. It lets you display any object on the terminal ("tty" was an old mainframe name meaning "teletype", the old typewriter-like devices used on timesharing systems). You can supply any parameter, usually a Buf (see "B") or just an integer or string, for example
ttyout 3.14;
ttyout "Hello Wooees";
ttyout ("The time is ", NOW, and tomorrow is ", DATE+1, CRLF);
You can even get a source listing of the ttyout function itself by saying
ttyout (&ttyout);
or a hexdump of an entire segment with
ttyout ::MYSEG:: ;
As usual, you can pause the screen display with ^S (and resume it with ^Q), or just use the scroll wheel to scroll it up the screen (like MS-Windows).
