If a command does not print data or require data to be entered, the terminal prints just a
command prompt to indicate the command has been executed and the terminal is ready to
accept another command as illustrated.
How to Use Options with Commands
Many commands take options that modify how the command works. These options are
additional letters or symbols typed on the command line after the command.
A semicolon (;) separates the command and the option(s). Do not put a space between the
command and the option(s); if you insert a space, the option will be interpreted as an
argument.
If both options and arguments (data) are used on a command line, the options come first, then
a space, then the arguments:
command;options arguments
When more than one option is used with a command, the options may be listed in any order.
Complex options (P1=, P2=, >, >>, <) are separated by commas.
The common options are:
A All. Usually expands the effect of a command.
I Initialize. Usually initializes data affected by the command.
C Chain. Allows you to enter multiple sets (a chain) of data to commands requiring data.
See below.
P1=,P2=Parameter. Allows you to specify fields for sorting. Field name is given as data
immediately following parameter; for example, PRINT TRANSACTION;P1=AUTH
would print a list of transactions sorted by authorization codes.
>
Redirect output to a new file. Saves output of a command in a file you specify. If the
file already exists, that file is overwritten. Requires destination (file name or LOG) as
argument.
>> Redirect output to an existing file. Output is appended to the end of the specified file.
Requires destination (file name) as argument. If a file does not exist, it will be created.
<
Redirect input. Allows you to use a file as the source of input to a command. Requires
source (file name) as argument.
L
Lines. Used with any command to page output for CRT screen. May also be used to
set number of lines per screen (for example, L=20). Stays in effect for all subsequent
commands until the user signs off or the L option is redefined by using it on another
command.
T
Text. Used in command files intended to be run from the console so that single lines of
text can be displayed on the console.
H
Home. Used with any command, clears from the current cursor position to the end of
the screen and puts the cursor in the home position on a CRT.
