Run-time Modification of VPATH Action

The user can modify the action of VPATH at run time by using the special command-line keywords PROMPT and/or RESET.
PROMPT
causes the VPATH to be ignored and a prompt to be issued for any required parameters which have not already been given values.
RESET
makes the system ignore CURRENT on the VPATH. See also Section [*] for the effect of RESET on prompts.
For example, assuming the Interface File above,
disp prompt
causes all parameters to be prompted for, irrespective of VPATH.
disp reset
causes the system to ignore `CURRENT' in the VPATH for parameter DISPLAY, and use the DEFAULT value.
