.SH NAME
\fC#control  \fIattribute\fC   \fIvalue\fR

.SH DESCRIPTION
Set various operational modes.
#if @PL = 1
Note: This is part of the general script processing package and
has little use in the ploticus context.
#endif

.SH ATTRIBUTES
\fIattribute\fR may be one of:

#if @PL != 1
.LP
\fBallowinlinecodes\fR
.IP
If \fIvalue\fR is \fCyes\fR, evaluate 
#set FILE = inlinecodes.html
#set TAG = "inline codes
#include link
found in script content.
Example: \fCallowinlinecodes yes\fR


.LP
\fBdbquote\fR
.IP
\fIvalue\fR should be the quote character used by external database for
alphanumeric strings.  Default is single quote (\fC'\fR).
Example: \fCdbquote "\fR 

.LP
\fBhtmlqhmode\fR
.IP
\fIvalue\fR should be \fCyes\fR to turn on HTML quote handling mode
or \fCno\fR to turn it off.  See
#set FILE = config.html
#set TAG = config
#include link
for a description of \fChtmlqhmode\fR.

.LP
\fBlistsep\fR
.IP
\fIvalue\fR should be the separator character used for
#set FILE = commalist.html
#set TAG = commalists
#include link
\0.  The default, of course, is comma, but any non-whitespace
character may be used for situations where comma is not feasible.
Example: \fClistsep ~\fR 

#endif //PL

.LP
\fBevalvars\fR 
.IP
\fIvalue\fR should be \fCno\fR to turn off evaluation of variables
and \fCyes\fR to turn it on.  Default is \fCyes\fR.

.LP
\fBdot_in_varnames\fR
.IP
If \fIvalue\fR is
\fCyes\fR, variable names may contain periods (.).  
If \fIvalue\fR is \fCno\fR, period will be used as a delimiting
character when scanning variable names in the script, and variable
names cannot contain any periods.  
The default is \fCno\fR unless sql database functionality is included 
in which case the default is \fCyes\fR (since sql join result field names
contain periods).

.LP
\fBsuppressdll\fR
.IP
\fIvalue\fR should be \fCyes\fR to suppress data-less lines, and \fCno\fR
to show data-less lines.  Default is \fCno\fR.  
A data-less line is a line
having one or more variables, all of which evaluate to a zero-length value.
Suppressing data-less lines is sometimes useful, for example, when displaying
multi-line entities such as postal addresses.
