1.2.2 Configuration and Programming Support

ACUCOBOL-GT provides many configuration variables and runtime library routines to tailor the environment and to help take advantage of host-specific capabilities. Configuration variables are documented in Appendix H, Book 4, "Appendices"." Library routines are documented in Appendix I, Book 4, ""Appendices."

Following is a select list of configuration variables, runtime library functions, and host specific capabilities pertinent to interface programming and configuration. For a complete list, refer to Book 4, "Appendices."
