Further information

1. Control parameters include the settings of Mosel as well as those of any loaded module. The module may be specified by prefixing the parameter name with the name of the module (e.g. mmxprs.XPRS_verbose). The type of the value must correspond to the type expected by the parameter.

2. This procedure can be applied only to control parameters the value of which can be modified.

3. The following control parameters, supported by Mosel, can be altered with this procedure:

realfmt	Default C printing format for real numbers (string, default: "%g")
zerotol	zero tolerance in comparisons between reals (real, default: 1.0e-13)
ioctrl	the interpreter ignores IO errors (Boolean, default: false)
readcnt	generate per label counting when executing `initializations from' blocks (Boolean, default: false)
UTC	indicate whether the time functions return time expressed in local (false) or UTC (true) time (Boolean, default: false)
