Permit STOP statement to return an integer status value.
SPARC:77 x86:77
yn is either yes or no. The default is no.
With -stop_status=yes, a STOP statement may contain an integer constant. That value will be passed to the environment as the program terminates:
STOP 123
The value must be in the range 0 to 255. Larger values are truncated and a run-time message issued. Note that
STOP `stop string'
is still accepted and returns a status value of 0 to the environment, although a compiler warning message will be issued.
The environment status variable is $status for the C shell csh, and $? for the Bourne and Korn shells, sh and ksh.
