MODE

     Use the CANCEL MODE to control the syntax of commands  you  enter
     and  the  values PATCH displays.  CANCEL MODE cancels the current
     mode settings and reinstates the initial default  mode  settings.
     The  initial  default mode settings are:  NOINSTRUCTION, NOASCII,
     SYMBOLS, HEXADECIMAL, LONG, NOGLOBALS, and SCOPE.

Format:

     CANCEL MODE

MODULE

     Use CANCEL MODULE to remove local symbol information from PATCH's
     symbol table;  this command does not remove global symbols, patch
     area symbols, universal symbols, or symbols you defined with  the
     DEFINE command.

     If the current scope is the name of the module that  you  specify
     with  the  CANCEL  MODULE command, the scope is reset to the null
     string (<null>).

Format:

     CANCEL MODULE module-name [,...]

Prompts:

PATCH_AREA

     Use CANCEL PATCH_AREA to reset the  current  patch  area  from  a
     user-defined  patch  area  to  the default patch area.  Any patch
     space needed thereafter will be taken from the default patch area
     until the next SET PATCH_AREA command is issued.

     The CANCEL PATCH_AREA command is used  primarily  when  you  have
     issued  the  SET  PATCH_AREA  command to establish a user-defined
     patch area as the current patch area.  After  you  have  inserted
     the  necessary  patch  information  into  that  area, type CANCEL
     PATCH_AREA to resume use of the default patch area.

Format:

     CANCEL PATCH_AREA


SCOPE

     Use CANCEL scope and to cancel the  current  symbolic  scope  and
     reset it to the null string (<null>).
