NB: More recent documentation for Dyalog APL is available at https://docs.dyalog.com/20.0/.
This function enables or disables the automatic saving of a CONTINUE workspace when Dyalog exits under certain circumstances.
By default this is disabled when Dyalog starts and must be explicitly enabled using this function.
Y is an integer defined as follows:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Disable the automatic saving of a CONTINUE workspace. |
| 1 | Enable the automatic saving of a CONTINUE workspace. This setting applies only to the current session or until disabled by 2704⌶0. |
The shy result R is the previous value of this setting.
Circumstances when Dyalog automatically saves a CONTINUE workspace include:
- a run-time violation. This is most frequently caused by an untrapped APL error which causes Dyalog to return to session-input mode (that is, an application programming fault), and APL was started with the "+q" command line option or input and output were redirected at the command line.
