SETDEBUG
Type: Verb
Use:  SETDEBUG(n) will interpret its immediate argument as a
      debug level for display and task execution purposes.  It
      sets the parameter DBGAIP which is available through the
      message include file INC:DMSG.INC for use by programmers.

      (AU2) and GTPARM.  Its uses so far include:
         DBGAIP >  0 : Do ZERRO2 for any File Control Block in
                          calls to ZERROR.
         DBGAIP >  1 : Have ZERROR dump the contents of the File
                          Control Block.
         DBGAIP > 10 : Have GO start tasks in local system DEBUG
                          mode if they have been compiled for
                          such execution and if any/all required
                          logicals have been properly set.
