CF - Character for Terminal Commands

This Natural profile and session parameter specifies the control character for Natural terminal commands; that is, the character which is to be used as the first character of any terminal command.

Within a Natural session, the profile parameter CF can be overridden by the session parameter CF.

In the map editor, the control character for terminal commands is always "%" (so as to avoid conflicts with delimiter characters used in maps), no matter which character is defined with the `CF` parameter.
Possible settings	`OFF`	No control character for terminal commands is available. Terminal commands issued with `SET CONTROL` statements, however, are still accepted.
Default setting	`%`	A terminal command must begin with the character "%".
