HP DeskManager Customization

<LESS> 

Syntax 

<LESS {var1} {var2} >

where:

var1                  numeric value in the range -32768 to 32767
var2                  numeric value in the range -32768 to 32767

Description 

<LESS> returns 1 (TRUE) if var1 is less than var2, otherwise it returns 0
(FALSE). Values outside this range can be stored in variables but they
will be treated as unquoted strings and are invalid for use in arithmetic
expressions.

See also:  <EQUAL>, <GREATER>.

Example 

     &FORWARD newtray <LESS <VAR ip> 8>

This will jump forward to a label newtray if the variable ip contains a
value which is less than 8.
