1.3 Capturing CRBasic Code
Many examples of CRBasic code are found throughout this manual. The manual
is designed to make using this code as easy a possible. Keep the following in
mind when copying code from this manual into CRBasic Editor:
If an example crosses pages, select and copy only the contents of one page at a
time. Doing so will help avoid unwanted characters that may originate from page
headings, page numbers, and hidden characters.
