View source for $GetL

<p>The $GETL function returns the line number of the current line on the page on the user's terminal or on the output data set specified by a USE command. The first line on a page is line number 1 and is the line on which header 0 appears. The current line is the line actually being printed if $GETL is invoked:</p>
<ul>
<li>From a PRINT statement</li>
</li>
<li>After a PRINT statement that ends with an ellipsis (...). </li>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Otherwise, the current line is the next line to be printed. The current line becomes line 1 as soon as the bottom line of a page has been printed. $GETL takes no arguments. </p>
