How to Terminate a Command

After you have typed a command and pressed Enter, you can terminate the command in most
cases by typing a ^C. (Ensure, C for cease.) When you type a ^C with a print command the
printout will stop at the point where the ^C was typed.

How to Delete Characters

Press Backspace (or type a ^H) to delete the previous character. Press Backspace as many
times as required to delete the mistake, then type the correct characters. You must make the
corrections before you press Enter.

The user typed PRNT.
The user pressed Backspace twice.
The terminal deleted the NT.
The user typed INT DATE.

[P:]* PRNT

[P:]* PR

[P:]* PRINT DATE

How to Delete a Line

Use a ^X to delete an entire line. You must make the correction before you press Enter.

The user typed PRUNT DATE and noticed the error.
The user entered a ^X.
The terminal printed a backslash after the deleted line and moved down one line.

[P:]* PRUNT DATE

[P:]* PRUNT DATE\

How to Pause Printout

A pause in printing is useful for viewing a printout on a CRT.

To temporarily pause printing without terminating a command, enter a ^S (S for stop) or press
Pause if you have a printer terminal. This will keep new lines from being printed.

To continue printing, enter ^Q, or press Enter, or press Pause again.

How to Pause Printout with the L Option

Use the L option to automatically pause printing after a specified number of lines have been
printed. Press Enter to print the next group of lines. If you do not specify a number, 24 lines
will be printed.

To use the L option to specify page length, type a semicolon L (;L), followed by an equals sign
and the required number, after the command. For example, ;L=20 sets the screen length to

20 lines.
