#
#  The functions ispqry, ispexec, ispcopy and isprepl must be installed
#  in the extcall module of iconx for these procedures to do anything useful.
#
#     These procedures provide an interface between Icon and ISPF:
#
#     ISPQry()        returns &null if ISPF services are available, or
#                     fails if not
#
#     ISPExec(cmd)    Sends an ISPEXEC command to ISPF.  Returns the
#                     ISPF return code if less than 12.  Otherwise,
#                     causes run-time error 500, and prints an error
#                     message if errors are not trapped.  If errors
#                     are trapped, the message is in &errorvalue.
#
#     ISPVcopy(var)   Returns the value of a variable in the ISPF
#                     "function pool", or fails if the named variable
#                     is not defined.  ISPF errors are handled as by
#                     ISPExec.
#
#     ISPVrepl(var,val) Stores a new value in an ISPF variable (or
#                     creates the variable if it does not exist).
#                     Returns 0 if successful.  ISPF errors are handled
#                     as by ISPExec.
#
# The first time ISPF is called, CONTROL ERRORS RETURN is established.
# This can be overridden if desired by a call to ISPExec for that
# purpose.
