The input file contains text to be printed, interspersed with commands to LO that direct its operation. Commands are expressed in a language of considerable sophistication. The command language is described. the presentation being designed to be suitable both as a primer to the learner as well as a reference manual for the expert. LO currently runs on the TX-2 Computer at Lincoln Laboratory, and details are provided on its use in that environment. There is a brief discussion of the steps involved in implementing it on a different computer system.
