SSETBREAK()
Syntax: SSETBREAK([<expL>]) will determine the new setting for the DOS switch BREAK.
Arguments: <expL> will determine the new setting for the DOS switch
BREAK.
Returns: A logical value.
The function returns the setting of BREAK, prior to changing
it, if <expL> has been passed.
Usage: Normally DOS will only check for Ctrl-Break in screen
and keyboard functions. The BREAK switch must be
switched ON with SSETBREAK() if the test must be carried
out more often., as for example, with disk operations.
BREAK can also be set within DOS via BREAK=<ON/OFF>.
