MC-Basic:PRINTTOBUFF
Multiple expressions are printed to a buffer in the serial port, separated by either a comma or semicolon. The semicolon puts the two expressions next to each other, while the comma puts a tab between them. The value assigned to the optional Send parameter determines whether the buffer content will be send to serial port at the end of the command (Send = True) or stored in the buffer (Send = False). If send assignment is abolished, send defaults to False.
