ON

As with BRIEF ON, disables the display of declaration information. This is the initial setting.

To further reduce the number of display lines, if the length of the variable value permits the variable name and contents are shown on the same display line. If sufficient space exists, the variable location information is also shown in this case.

OFF

As with BRIEF OFF, enables the display of declaration information.

When you display a variable, IDF normally uses multiple lines of the display to show all the variable information. When variables with short names and short formatted values are displayed, much of these display lines contain blanks. Use the COMPACT display mode to minimize the number of lines used for variable display.

As with the BRIEF display mode, the optional variable declaration information is suppressed.

To maximize the number of variables that can be displayed, you can use the SPACE OFF command to eliminate the blank line optionally generated between variables.

The COMPACT option is initially ON, which also suppresses the declaration information. To display declaration information, the COMPACT and BRIEF options must both be OFF.
