A field mark delimited array having 13 values. Whilst initially loaded by the system, all values can be overridden at the preprompt process.

<1>Text and scan codes to be executed before the user types anything. Note that this data does not need to be delimited with "|"s. When entering a prompt, information will be taken first from this variable, then @Data then @Playback then the user.
<2>If true, text is not initially displayed. Used for speed if the text has already been displayed.
<3>True - uppercase conversion
<4>Text used in border title when in Zoom mode or when editing using Ctrl-E.
<5>True means start editing in insert mode, false means start editing in overtype mode.
<6>Indicates that Scribe ought to not repaint the current line (0), repaint the current line (1), or repaint the screen (2).
<7>Set to 1 to suppress Ctrl-E functionality. This has the same effect as setting WC_Delim% to null.
<8>Set to true tells Scribe to keep WC_Scribe_State% up to date.
<9>Set to 1 to suppress Zoom functionality.
<10>Set to 0, saves original value of prompt in WC_Scribe_State%
<11>Set to 1 indicates recursive call to Scribe.
<12>Set to 1 preserves status line until key pressed.
<13>The entry here is printed at the current prompt position when a key is pressed.
