$getset(<set name>)

• If the <set name> argument is omitted the empty string is returned.
• If the set variable <set name> does not exist, the empty string is returned.
• This function returns the value that would be returned by the “set value” $<set name>.

The built in set values ($DISPLAY, $INSERT_MODE, $DISPLAY_ANSI) can be overridden by user variables (eg, /assign DISPLAY testing).

If you need to get the value of the underlying /SET value and not be thwarted by an assign alias, you can call this function to get the /SET's value.

$builtin_expando(DISPLAY)     returns the value of /SET DISPLAY
$builtin_expando(DEBUG)       returns the value of /SET DEBUG

This function first appeared in EPIC4pre2.400.
