I have never used the -Ff form so have no experience. I prefer to set
things explicitly then there is no ambiguity :)

Looking at the manual I have for 3.1 it is unclear. In one place it
defines -Ff as 'create variables as far'. in another is defines it as
'create variable over default size as far, default being 32767'. Now I
know why I like to be explicit :)
