POS
From QB64 Wiki
The POS function returns the current print cursor text column position.
- column% = POS(0)
- The value in parenthesis should be 0, but any value could be used with same results. Don't ask why...
- When a semicolon ends the previous PRINT statement the cursor column position will be after the last character printed.
- If TAB or a comma is used the column position will be immediately after the tabbed position.
- If a PRINT statement does not use a semicolon or comma at the end, the return value will be 1 on the next row.
- Return can be saved to return later to a previous print position using LOCATE.
