(MIT, opposite of ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=line feed">line feed) 1. To feed paper through a printer the wrong way by one line (most printers can' t do this). On a display terminal, to move the cursor up to the previous line of the screen. "To print "X squared", you just output "X", line starve, "2", line feed." (The line starve causes the "2" to appear on the line above the "X", and the line feed gets back to the original line.) 2. A character (or character sequence) that causes a terminal to perform this action. ASCII 26, also called SUB or control-Z, was one common line-starve character in the days before ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=microcomputer">microcomputers and the ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=X3.64">X3.64 terminal standard. Unlike "line feed", "line starve" is *not* standard ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=ASCII">ASCII terminology. even among hackers it is considered silly. 3. (Proposed) A sequence such as c (used in ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=System V">System V ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=echo">echo, as well as ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=nroff">nroff and ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=troff">troff) that suppresses a ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=newline">newline or other character(s) that would normally be emitted.
