Expansion with alarm text variables

Expansion with alarm text variables
A special feature to be noted with respect to parameterizing the section for
descriptive texts or category names is that ("Alarm text variables") can be stored in
the section in place of descriptive texts.
These variables begin with "$".
E.g. m/14//CYCLExx/$888888
Instead of entering the descriptive text directly into the Help text file, it is stored
directly, e.g. under the alarm text variable "$888888".
The declaration of the descriptive text is thus relocated to a user-specific alarm text
file.
Thus you have a language-independent text file.
See /PGZ/, "Programming Guide Cycles", Section "Independence of Language".
