option #10

Interrupt character(s)

System option #10 controls whether or not the interrupt character(s) are ignored at program start-up and between chains.

If option #10 is set, the interrupt character(s) are ignored at program start-up and between chained programs, and the state of the FLAGS subroutine runtime option flag 8 is automatically set on entry to each program. You can control when an interrupt character is processed (in other words, not ignored) throughout your program by unsetting and resetting flag 8.

If you don’t set this option, Synergy DBL processes any interrupt character that the user types unless flag 8 is set.
