//MOVETO, x, y

MOVETO positions the internal cursor to the specified point relative to the current mapping mode (see SETMAPMODE). The parameter x specifies the starting horizontal position and y the starting vertical position, both using the current mapping units.

Its only effect will be on subsequent operations (e.g. LINETO) and subsequent text that is not part of an explicit GDI directive.

MOVETO may also be used to disable A-Shell's auto-page break. A single //MOVETO,0,0 anywhere on each page tells A-Shell to turn off its line-counting logic.
