VAXTPU CURRENT_LINE — VMS 5.2

 CURRENT_LINE

    Returns a string representing the current line.  The current line is
    the line on which the active editing point is located.

 Syntax

    string := CURRENT_LINE

 Comments

    If the cursor is free and the current buffer is mapped to a visible
    window, using CURRENT_LINE may result in the insertion of padding
    spaces or lines from the nearest text to the cursor position.

 Example

    my_cur_line := CURRENT_LINE

    Stores in the variable MY_CUR_LINE the string representing the current
    line.
