The configurable text file extension

The extension is determined at run time. Normally it is set to the value of the environment variable SCTEXT. When a program loads, the current value of SCTEXT is stored in the system variable sys.Text.

If SCTEXT has not been set, or if the specified filename does not exist with the extension represented by SCTEXT, then the default extension .eng is used. If the default file does not exist, then the program cannot be run.
