Type: Command
General Programming-Syntax: AUTO [<step>]

AUTO is a BASIC 3.5 command that turns on automatic line numbering. If active, it will automatically start a new input line to enter with a automatic line number increased by value <step> (10 if absent) every time the line is finished by entering RETURN . This command is usable in direct mode only.

Note: The BASIC line numbers can be used only in the range from 0 to 63999.

Note 2: This command can't use in BASIC programs!
