EOFF -- Deactivate the Shell's -E flag.
usage:  EOFF


FORMAT

  EOFF


  EOFF  disables  variable  evaluation.    Variables  are  evaluated only inside
  variable expression delimeters, ((expression)); otherwise,  the  Shell  treats
  the  ^var_name  expressions  as strings and they are not evaluated.  To enable
  variable evaluation regardless of the context in which the  variable  appears,
  specify EON.

  By default, EOFF is in effect when a Shell is invoked.

  If  EOFF is specified in a Shell script, it remains in effect until that Shell
  script exits, or until over-ridden by an EON in a nested Shell script. When  a
  Shell  script exits, the state of variable evaluation is returned to the state
  in effect just before the script was invoked.

  EOFF requires no arguments or options.
