Syntax

COMPILE file-specifier item-list {(options}

Syntax Elements

Refer to the BASIC command for details of syntax elements and options.

Operation

COMPILE is functionally identical to the BASIC command, except that the case of keywords, variables and labels is ignored; for example, the variables FRED, fred and FrEd are treated as a single variable.

Note: Use COMPILE to compile programs imported from MultiValue systems that permit case-insensitive keywords, variables and labels.

Refer to the BASIC command for full details of operation.
