RUN

Runs the McBASI program.

RUN p1 . . . pn FILE= CLEAR= VAR=
'filename p1 . . . pn CLEAR= VAR=
RUN "statement
' "statement

p1 . . n	parameter values
filename	name of the McBASI program to run; the extension defaults to .MCB
statement	McBASI statement to execute immediately; 80 characters maximum
FILE=	runs a program from a different file; invalid when using the single quote format ( ' )
CLEAR=	YES	suppresses initialization of all variables
	NO	variables retain previous values
VAR=	variable's source or destination LW file
	SHARE	shares variables when one McBASI program RUNs another
	x	LW file in which to store the variables (different from the default, which is assigned by terminal number), or the LW file holding the source variables

The RUN statement can be abbreviated; see the examples below.

RUN p1 . . . pn FILE=xxxxxx

'xxxxxx p1 . . . pn

Replace xxxxxx with the file name (limited to 6 characters); these two RUN statements are interchangeable.
