The .SUBTITLE command allows you to specify a subtitle for a running head (see .HEADERS ON). When using the default .LAYOUT command, the subtitle appears on the second line of every page (except page 1) at the leftmost position on a line (character position 0), regardless of the left margin setting. The .NO SUBTITLE command cancels the .SUBTITLE command. (See also .AUTOSUBTITLE, .TITLE, .FIRST TITLE, and .LAYOUT.) Formats .SUBTITLE [text] .NO SUBTITLE Abreviated formats .ST [text] .NST
1 – Parameter
text The title of the running head you want to appear on the second line of the page.
2 – Defaults
o If you do not enter either .SUBTITLE or .NO SUBTITLE, you get .NO SUBTITLE. o If you enter the .SUBTITLE command without specifying subtitle text for it, you will get the effects of .AUTOSUBTITLE (provided you have not entered .NO AUTOSUBTITLE). o If .AUTOSUBTITLE is in effect and if the text picked up from an applicable .HEADER LEVEL command is wider than the margins in effect when the subtitle is displayed, the subtitle is truncated and an ellipsis (...) is appended to the end of it.
