 name, followed by its start and end column separated by @samp{-}
-(e.g.@: @samp{0-9}), followed by the input format type (e.g.@:
-@samp{F}).  For this command, columns are numbered starting from 0 at
+(e.g.@: @samp{0-9}), followed by an input format type (e.g.@:
+@samp{F}) or a full format specification (e.g.@: @samp{DOLLAR12.2}).
+For this command, columns are numbered starting from 0 at
 the left column.  Introduce the variables in the second and later
 lines of a case by a slash followed by the number of the line within
 the case, e.g.@: @samp{/2} for the second line.
