Options may be set to modify the behavior of ACIS. An option's value may be a flag (indicating an on/off state), a number (integer or real number), or a string. Options may be set in a Scheme application (such as Scheme AIDE) using the Scheme extension option:set; or in a C++ application using one of several API functions.
