List of General Run-time Switches

The following general run-time switches are available:

0, 1, 2, ... 8 Programmable switches

A1 Display trailing spaces

B, B1 Skip locked record

C4 Sets screen into 43-line mode

C5 Sets screen into 50-line mode

D Invoke the ANSI COBOL Debug module

E Execute code containing S-level errors

F Validate numeric data in intermediate code

I2 Run-time system error redirection

L1 Disable exception pop-up

L2 Determine record terminator for line sequential files

N Enables null insertion for all line sequential files in your program              !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

S5 Use redirectable console I/O

T Insert tabs in line sequential files

You enter the switches either on the command line or in the environment variable COBSW before you run your program. Switch settings on the command line take precedence over those in COBSW.
