Description

Use the marked keyword to refer to cards whose mark property is true.

You use the mark command to set the marked property of a subset of cards. Once marked, the cards can be treated as a set by the sort or print command. The form sort marked cards sorts only the cards whose mark property is true. The form print marked cards prints only the cards whose mark property is true.

In card references, the marked keyword indicates a card selected from the subset of marked cards. For example, the following statement goes to the first card in the current stack whose mark property is true:

    go first marked card
