DUMP
Syntax classication: PAC

le. The associated panel is listed in gure 6.17. The panel parameters are as follows:

NPL

Write the right margins.
Write the x statuses (1 for a free variable, 0 for a xed one).
Write the search steps used by the ROLL command.
Write the symbolic names of the parameters.
Species how many numbers will be written on each line of the le. This does not apply
to symbolic names, which are always written one per line. Setting NPL to 0, lets the

Allowed values are:
NO The previous contents of the le are overwritten.
YES The new values are appended at the end of the le.
FROM
Species the index to start writing from.
