View Ref-FileProcedures and functions will be compiled as GFA BASIC subroutines if the $P>
option is enabled, thus allowing the passing of parameters and problem-free
recursive calls.

The $P< option leads to procedures and function without parameters or local
variables to be compiled as simple 68000 subroutines. This can produce problems
in recursive calls with stack overflows. On the other hand, they are executed
more quickly. Also, no RESUME or RESUME NEXT is possible with $P<.

Memo: $P< is the default.
