+<h2>Syntax</h2>
+
+<dl>
+<dt>(terpri [<i>dest</i>])</dt>
+<dd><i>dest</i> - an optional destination, must be a file pointer or
+stream, default is <a href="global-standard-output.htm">*standard-output*</a><br>
+returns - <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a></dd>
+</dl>
+
+<h2>Description</h2>
+
+<p>The 'terpri' function prints a new-line to the specified 'destination'
+This will terminate the current print line for 'destination'.
+<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> is always returned as the result. The
+'destination' may be a file pointer or a stream. If there is no
+'destination', <a href="global-standard-output.htm">*standard-output*</a> is the
+default.</p>
+
+<h2>Examples</h2>
+
+<pre class="example">
+(terpri) <font color="#008844">; prints #\Newline</font>
+
+(setq f (open "pr" :direction :output)) <font color="#008844">; create a file</font>
+(princ "hi" f) <font color="#008844">; returns "hi"</font>
+(princ 727 f) <font color="#008844">; returns 727</font>
+(princ "ho" f) <font color="#008844">; returns "ho"</font>
+(terpri f) <font color="#008844">; returns NIL</font>
+(close f) <font color="#008844">; file contains hi727ho#\Newline</font>
+</pre>
+
+<p><b>Common Lisp:</b> Common Lisp specifies that print operations with a
+'destination' of <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> will go to
+<a href="global-standard-output.htm">*standard-output*</a>. XLISP does not send the
+output to <a href="global-standard-output.htm">*standard-output*</a> with a
+'destination' of <a href="nil.htm">NIL</a>. Common Lisp also
+specifies that a 'destination' of
+<a href="t.htm">&nbsp;T&nbsp;</a> will be sent to
+*terminal-io*, which is not defined in XLISP by default. XLISP does not
+allow <a href="t.htm">&nbsp;T&nbsp;</a> as a valid argument
+for 'destination'.</p>
+
+<p>See the
+<a href="../manual/xlisp-man-027.htm#terpri">terpri</a>
+function in the <nobr>XLISP 2.0</nobr> manual.</p>
