     Syntax:  /Of
              /Of-
 
     The /Of option (p-code only) enables the compiler to find
     duplicate sections of code and then create a single instance of
     that code. This process is known as "quoting." With quoting
     enabled (/Of), the duplicate code is replaced with the p-code
     equivalent of a function call to produce smaller code than is
     produced when quoting is disabled (/Of-).
 
     Quoting enabled (/Of) is the default. However, quoting makes code
     difficult to read; use the /Of- option to disable quoting while
     debugging. Quoting is especially useful for a final product.
