<DL COMPACT><DT><DD>
Define non-alphanumeric characters that may be used in identifiers.
By default, <B>ftnchek</B> only accepts the dollar sign and underscore
as non-alphanumeric characters in identifier names.  The characters in
the <I>list</I> replace whatever set of accepted non-alphanumeric characters
was previously in effect.  Thus, if dollar sign or underscore are not
included in the list, they lose their status as acceptable characters.
<P>

This option is provided to enable <B>ftnchek</B> to handle source files
containing non-standard identifer names that may be needed, for
example, to access certain operating system services.  See the section
on <A HREF="lbAK.html">Limitations and Extensions</A> for the treatment of identifiers
containing these characters in implicit typing.
<P>

Using <B>-noidentifer-chars</B> turns off acceptance of
non-alphanumeric characters entirely.
