If the next selection is correct, the new menu is displayed. Where possible, the cursor is
positioned in the field where the "next" command was run.
"P" command: previous element
This command moves the cursor to the previous element in repetitive menus. All the details
given above for the "N" command apply to the "P" command.
"R" command: repeat
This command repeats the value of the field in which the cursor is positioned, in all the following
elements that meet the search criteria (if any).
This command is only available in repetitive menus. If you run this command in any other type of
menu, an error message is displayed.
You are prompted to confirm before the command is run.
If an error is detected during the repeat operation, a message is displayed, but the operation
continues. The repeat operation stops when the selection task indicates that there are no more
elements.
"L" command: listing
This command is only available in repetitive menus. It is used to print out the lines selected in all
the menus containing elements that meet the search criteria, starting with the element from
which the command was run.
You are prompted to confirm before the command is run.
Note: This command stops if a print error occurs. In this case, an error message is displayed.
You do not have control of the terminal during printing.
"G" command: guide
This command can only be used on list fields. It is used to display, on the four lines of the
keystroke command box, the first n elements in the current list.
If there is not enough room on the four lines of the keystroke command box (that is, there are
more than 16 elements in the list), run the "guide" command again to display the 16 following
elements.
If the keystroke command box becomes saturated, only the first 8 characters of each of the
elements are displayed.
On a VT100 terminal, the keystroke command box is automatically updated to show the entries
already made.
Note: The longest lists are variable lists with elements supplied by the operator (for example,
trunk group name). To use the command effectively, it is advisable to select names with
different first letters (for example, do not use TKGP00, TKGP01 as you will have to enter
T
K G P 0 1, etc. every time).
