 corridor&quot;.  Instead of
typing all that out every time, you could define a string, like
this:

<pre>
    .STRING mw the Montreal/Windsor corridor
</pre>
</p>

<p>
Once a string is defined, you can call it any time with the
<a href="definitions.html#INLINES">inline escape</a>
<kbd>\*[&lt;stringname&gt;]</kbd>.  Using the example string above

<pre>
    The schedule for trains along \*[mw]:
</pre>

produces, on output

<pre>
    The schedule for trains along the Montreal/Windsor corridor:
</pre>
</p>
