In computer programming, a directive or pragma (from "pragmatic") is a language construct that specifies how a compiler (or other translator) should process its input. Depending on the programming language, directives may or may not be part of the grammar of the language and may vary from compiler to compiler. They can...

COBOL has a COPY directive. In ALGOL 68, directives are known as pragmats (from "pragmatic"), and denoted pragmat or pr; in newer languages, notably C, this has been abbreviated to "pragma" (no 't'). A common use of pragmats in ALGOL 68 is in specifying a stropping regime, meaning "how keywords are indicated". Variou...
