FUP Commands
save configuration values, use the SHOW command. You can set configuration
values from the FUPCSTM or FUPLOCL files or from a file with an OBEY
command.

FUP uses the current configuration options wherever applicable. You can set or
change the configuration options in the FUPLOCL file or the FUPCSTM file or do
so interactively with the CONFIGURE or RESET commands.

If an option is specified more than once, FUP uses the last one specified.

Configuration options have precedence over the standard FUP defaults, but explicit
options at the command line can override them—unless the configuration option
does not have a named default.
To cancel configuration options that were set with the CONFIGURE command, you
must use the RESET command.
For example, if you specify CONFIGURE COPY UNSTRUCTURED, the
UNSTRUCTURED value applies to all COPY commands until it is reset. You
cannot override the UNSTRUCTURED option in a COPY command because it
does not have a named default. To cancel it, you must enter RESET COPY
UNSTRUCTURED.
However, the explicit SOURCEDATE option in a DUP A, B, SOURCEDATE
command can override a SAVEALL option used in a CONFIGURE DUP SAVEALL
command. SOURCEDATE and SAVEALL are in the same family of options, and
the explicit option in the DUP command overrides the option in the CONFIGURE
command.

Because CONFIGURE remembers options that contain file or volume names, such
as DUP ALTFILE filename or LOAD PARTOF volume, you must be careful. The
file names often apply only to specific parts of a file and cannot be overridden
because they have no named defaults.

Although using CONFIGURE with options that have no named defaults (including
the options with file names) is more difficult than using options with named
defaults, it can be useful on consecutive FUP commands that apply to the same
circumstance.

You can use the ALLOW config-command to force FUP to execute a command
on each file within a file set when some of the commands might generate errors.
The allowed error counts do not apply to command parsing errors or errors that
FUP classifies as calamities (errors from which FUP cannot recover).
Note. Most file-system errors are classified as severe.

To set defaults for COPY, INFO (DETAIL), and SHOW commands, use
CONFIG[URE] DISPLAYBITS:

When bitcount is 7, COPY displays the character for any byte with an octal
value from %40 through %177. A period (.) appears for an octal value greater
