System variables are settings that control how certain commands work.
They can turn on or turn off modes such as Snap, Grid, or Ortho. They can
set default scales for hatch patterns. They can store information about the
current drawing and about program configuration. Sometimes you use a system
variable in order to change a setting. At other times you use a system variable
to display the current status.
For example, the GRIDMODE system variable turns the dot grid display on
and off when you change the value. In this case, the GRIDMODE system
variable is functionally equivalent to the GRID command. DATE is a read-only
system variable that stores the current date. You can display this value, but
you cannot change it.
