&GOTO
Syntax
&GOTO {linenumber} [condition]
where:
linenumber numeric value in the range 1 to 32767
condition boolean number
Description
&GOTO specifies an absolute jump in a script. The script line to which
control should transfer, linenumber must be specified, as it is the
absolute linenumber from the start of the script file. Optionally, &GOTO
may be controlled by a conditional parameter. If no condition is
specified, this causes a jump to the given line number. If a condition
is given, the jump only occurs if the condition is true (1). Although
&GOTO can be a useful directive, it is much better to use the &BACK or
&FORWARD directives with a label.
See also: &BACK, &FORWARD.
Example
&GOTO 26
This will cause a jump to line 26 of the script.
