These
two
commands
are
used
as
a pair, on adjacent lines,
to
form
double height-double
width
characters. The
same
character must
be
sent
to
the
same
column
of
both lines
to
form
each
character.
If
the line
was
previously single height-single
width,
all characters
from
the middle
of
the line
to
the
end
of
the line are lost. The cursor remains under the
same
character position, unless the character position
is
lost, in which
case
the cursor
is
moved
to
the
right margin.
