PT means printer tag, but we use PT tags for format tags. In fact, nothing prints from XyWrite. To print a definition, use CDE.
Single Double Arrows
XyWrite uses single characters (ASCII 174 and 175) as tag delimiters. Double arrows (<< and >>) simulate them below:
Yellow
Triangle
Tag Purpose
<<PT6>> Term name.

<<PT2>> Body text of 2nd and subsequent

Used for links to other terms; for
