void disp(multi-type)
Return Type: void
Parameters: multi-type
Description:
This displays the string representation of the input parameter. Usually,
the input parameter is simply a string, in which case the string will
be displayed. However, this will display the string representation of
any variable passed to it. In general, the string representation is that
representation displayed in the who command. The exceptions to this are
if the string representation is truncated by the who command or if the
variable is an array. The disp function does not truncate the variable
string representation and will display each element of an input array
on a new line.
