Lesson 4: System Variables
Many of the predefined system variables are read-only. To see the
variable table (a list of all of the variables on your system) with their
current values, use SHOWVAR plus the wildcard character @.

The values on your system may not be the ones shown in the example.
Notice that any user defined variables added during the current session
appear at the bottom of the list.
The values of some system variables, such as CIERROR and HPRESULT, may be
changed by the system during your session.
You will find additional information on system variables and their uses
in appendix A of the MPE XL Commands Reference Manual (32650-90003).
