The print statement is enabled by default in the JScript .NET command-line compiler, jsc.exe. You can disable it by using the /print- option. When there is no console to print to (for example, Windows GUI), the print statement will silently fail. Output from the print statement can be redirected to a file from the command line. If you want to make sure redirected output is correctly formatted, include the "\r" combination at the end of each printed line. It does not affect the way lines are displayed on the console.

Here is an example for the print statement, with a few escape sequences:

  print("Student: \t" + student + "\n\rGrade: \t" + grade);
will yield the following console output:

  Student:             John
  Grade:       98
