COMMA COMMAND LINE

SET COMMA COMMAND LINE
SET EQUAL COMMAND LINE
SET HYPHEN COMMAND LINE

Set Subcommand

Specify whether commas, equal signs, or hyphens are treated as word delimiters when parsing Dataplot command lines.

These commands are typically used internally by Dataplot for certain commands (specifically, they are used to support the various syntax for arguments to the CALL command), but they can be explicitly set. However, it is not typically recommended to change the default settings.

Spaces will still be treated as word delimiters regardless of how the comma, equal signs and hyphens are set.

SET COMMA COMMAND LINE <ON/OFF>
where <ON> specifies that commas will be treated as word delimiters while <OFF> specifies that they will not.

SET EQUAL COMMAND LINE <ON/OFF>
where <ON> specifies that equal signs ("=") will be treated as word delimiters while <OFF> specifies that they will not.

SET HYPHEN COMMAND LINE <ON/OFF>
where <ON> specifies that hyphens ("-") will be treated as word delimiters while <OFF> specifies that they will not.
