Reserved words

The rules for reserved words are:

Intrinsic function names cannot be dimensioned array names, but can be variable names.
Special tokens cannot be used as variable names (that is, and, do, else, and so on).
Any other word can be both an array or variable name.

The list of reserved words are:


`and` `before` `cat` `col2` `cpcopy` `do` `else` `error` `field` `ge` `gt` `inmat` `len` `match` `missing` `not` `on` `pccopy` `repeat` `rtnlist` `setting` `space` `status` `summation` `then` `trim` `using` `with`	`abs` `ascii` `by` `convert` `date` `dquote` `end` `exchange` `fmt` `go` `iconv` `insert` `ln` `matches` `mod` `num` `onerr` `present` `replace` `scan` `sin` `sqrt` `step` `swap` `time` `trimb` `while` `xtd`	`access` `assigned` `capturing` `char` `cos` `dcount` `dtx` `eq` `exp` `fold` `gosub` `in` `int` `locked` `maximum` `ne` `occurs` `or` `pwr` `returning` `sentence` `sort` `spooler` `str` `system` `timedate` `trimf`	`alpha` `at` `case` `col1` `count` `delete` `ebcdic` `ereplace` `extract` `for` `goto` `index` `le` `lt` `minimum` `next` `oconv` `passlist` `rem` `rnd` `seq` `soundex` `stacking` `sum` `tan` `to` `until`
