Continuation lines in control statements

A control statement for the KDCDEF generation tool can consist of one or more lines, in which the hyphen (-) or backslash (\) can be used as the continuation character. In other words, if the last character of a line (apart from blanks) is a hyphen or a backslash, KDCDEF interprets the following line as belonging to the last statement specified. The continuation line can be entered starting in column 1 or later.

Each control statement can be up to 3096 characters in length, excluding comment lines, continuation characters, and blanks after the continuation character.

All comment lines must be marked with REMARK or an * in column 1.
