13.29 PSEUDOVE
Type: General type of POPS symbol
Use: Pseudo-verbs are magic symbols which cause FORTRAN routines to
carry out specific actions. Unlike verbs, pseudo-verbs are
executed as soon as they are encountered by the compiler even
in compile mode. In general, the FORTRAN routines which are
invoked will parse the remainder of the input line under
special, non-standard rules. Any normal code typed on the line
ahead of the pseudo-verb will not be executed.
Grammar: See the \zxhlp{HELP} listings for the specific pseudoverb.
Examples: \zxhlp{HELP} \zxhlp{HELP}
\zxhlp{ARRAY} JUNK(4, -7 \zxhlp{TO} 9)
\zxhlp{PROC} DUMMY (I,J)
\zxhlp{LIST} DUMMY
\zxhlp{DEBUG} \zxhlp{TRUE}
\zxhlp{INPUTS} MLOAD
