Purpose
Command separator /continuation character
Syntax
<command> [; <command>]

Description
Multiple commands can be placed on a line by separating each command with a ';' character. The ';' character may also be used to continue a literal character string to the next line. When the ';' character is used in this way, a space is added to the string. If ';' is the last character on a line, it can be used as a continuation character to extend commands over more than one line.
Example
// Used as a command separator if deleted() dialog box "Record deleted."; clear; return else dialog box "Record not deleted." endif // Used as a continuation character menu browse accounts->name; label "Account Names" // Used in a character string dialog message "That file does not exist. Do you wish to ; continue?"
