A run-time switch

Starts the debugger to debug an application which is either invoked using the cobrun command or dynamically loaded by a linked module.
Restriction: These switches are supported for native COBOL only.

Properties:

Default: Off
Type: General

Comments:

If you want to debug an application created by the cob command directly, you can use the anim command. If you use anim there is no need to set this switch.

If this switch is on, the debugger checks the DISPLAY environment variable. If DISPLAY is set, it attempts to open a new X window at the location specified in the DISPLAY environment variable; otherwise it uses the current terminal.
