LONG_FORM |
Use Long Variable Names |
Use the LONG_FORM directive to have the PxPlus compiler's input parsing routine accept long variable names (default mode). The complementary directive is SHORT_FORM, which allows only short variable names.
You can write programs in either SHORT_FORM or LONG_FORM or a combination of both. You can also run programs in either mode.
