Use the Program Search feature to begin program execution from some
block other than the beginning of the program. This feature requires the
operator to establish the necessary G-, M-, S-, F-, and T-words, work
coordinate offsets, etc. that should be active for that block’s execution.
The control can start a program at a chosen block and establishing any
previous G-, M-, S-, F-, and T-words, work coordinate offsets, etc. that
were established in previous blocks using the search with memory feature.
For details, see page 7-12.
The program search feature is not effective for subprograms and
paramacros; only blocks that are in the main program can be searched.
