Printing starts always with a new line. This may lead to an empty line at the beginning. Especially the first line of a file is reserved for a possible headline.

Each line begins with the index of the first element printed into that line. The index is followed by a colon and by the requested nperline elements.
Cartesian complex numbers are printed in braces, with the real and imaginary parts separated by a komma: {Re, Im}. Polar complex numbers are also written in braces, with the Mag and Arg parts separated by an at-sign: {Mag @ Arg}.

In contrast to VF_write and VF_nwrite, it is not possible to override the automatic choice of the format used for printing. The number of digits per element is determined by the available space, which depends in turn on the parameters nperline and linewidth.
