Syntax 

<VAREQUAL {varname1} {varname2} >

where:

varname1              unquoted string
varname2              unquoted string

Description 

<VAREQUAL> returns 1 (TRUE) if the contents of the variables  varname1 
and varname2 are equal, otherwise it returns 0 (FALSE). If the variable
contents are strings (quoted, unquoted or parenthetic), then their case
is significant.  Use <UPSHIFT> if you want the case to be ignored.  The
variable names should not be enclosed in a <VAR> statement.  <VAREQUAL>
combines the functions of <EQUAL> and <STREQUAL>.

See also:  <EQUAL>, <STREQUAL>.

Example 

     &BACK same <VAREQUAL reply stored>

If what is contained in reply is the same as what is contained in stored,
a move backwards to the label same is made.
