RE: The passing of user selections

Joe,

Why not just initialize the values in the C specs? It's for sure not as pretty 
to look at but it gets the job done without using global variables.

Okay, I can buy this.  It simply means that anything I want
reinitialized whenever the program restarts has to be global.  Pluses
and minuses there, but it's at least a workaround.

I would ask for one thing.  I would love a keyword either on the D spec
(or even up at the PI level) along the lines of *GLBREINZ that would say
"reinitialize this variable whenever global reinitialization is done".
That would allow us the best of both worlds.
