OPTIONS

The OPTIONS instruction is used to provide environment-specific extensions to REXX.

In NetMaster REXX, the OPTIONS expression is ignored at compile time. At execution time, the expression is evaluated and broken into blank-delimited tokens. These tokens are then processed as described in the following table.

Note: Tokens not in the table are ignored.
