| + | |||
| + | The ASCII value to be used by SCRIBE as the delimiter when prompting for | ||
| + | input. Note that this is normally set to the following values | ||
| + | |||
| + | |Key|Null| | ||
| + | |SV prompt|CHAR(253)| | ||
| + | |MV prompt|CHAR(253)| | ||
| + | |Ctrl-E' | ||
| + | |Text prompt|CHAR(251)| | ||
| + | |||
| + | The existence of a value in WC_DELIM% indicates to the system that Ctrl-E | ||
| + | (to drop the delimiter a level) is possible. Thus Ctrl-E on a normal prompt | ||
| + | drops DELIM to CHAR(252). Ctrl-E again drops WC_DELIM% to CHAR(251). To | ||
| + | indicate that Ctrl-E is not permitted in a prompt, set WC_DELIM% to null. If | ||
| + | the user then presses Ctrl-E the system will respond with a W812 (" | ||
| + | are not allowed" | ||
