@VAL

@VAL is a line type used to set the color of the current field according to the value of the field. More than one @VAL line type can be specified for different values of the current field. The first match found between the field’s value and the value specified in the @VAL line determines the color of the field. The format for an @VAL line is

@VAL       DATA=data

where data specifies a data string that is be compared to the current value of the field. The data string can contain * and ? mask characters.

Color parameters must also be specified in the line. In case of a match between the field’s current value and data in the @VAL line, the colors specified in the @VAL line override the colors specified in the @FIELD line.
