Conditional Compilation Symbols (/D)

─────Conditional Compilation Symbols (/D)───────────────────────────────────
 
     The /D option defines a symbolic name used by the conditional-
     compilation metacommands. The name must immediately follow /D,
     with no intervening space.
 
     Syntax: /Dsymbol[=val]
 
     An equal sign (=) and integer value may be added. This assigns a
     specific value to the symbol that the conditional-compilation
     metacommands can check.
 
     Example
 
          FL /Dtestprocs foo.for
 
     This example defines the symbol testprocs. The compiler will then
     evaluate any DEFINED (testprocs) expression in the conditional-
     compilation metacommands as true.
