SET ECHO command

Controls whether GO and STEP commands are recorded in the log window when they are not subcommands. The presence of long sequences of GO and STEP commands clutters the log window and provides little additional information. SET ECHO makes it possible to suppress the display of these commands. The contents of the log file are unaffected. The initial setting is ON.
