Getting Online Help
To display a list of the commands at the SAFECOM prompt:
=HELP
As the previous help screen describes, you can also use the HELP command to
display the syntax of a particular command. For example, to display the syntax for the
ASSUME command:
=HELP ASSUME
HELP is available for the following SAFECOM commands:
ADD ALTER ASSUME DELETE DISPLAY ENV EXIT
FC FREEZE HELP HISTORY INFO LOG NEXTFILE
OBEY OUT RELEASE RESET RUN SELECT SET
SHOW STOP SYNTAX SYSTEM THAW VOLUME ?
!
Enter HELP COMMANDS for brief descriptions of all SAFECOM commands.
Enter HELP GRAMMAR for the complete syntax of all SAFECOM commands.
Enter HELP command-name for a detailed description of the syntax
and function of any specific SAFECOM command.
Enter HELP ALL for detailed descriptions of the function and syntax
for all SAFECOM commands, attributes, and lists.
HELP is also available for each keyword, individually, and you can
enter HELP * for help on all keywords.
HELP is also available for the following attributes and lists:
ALIAS-LIST, EVENT-EXIT-PROCESS-ATTR, GROUP-ATTR, GROUP-LIST,
OBJECT-ATTR, OBJECT-LIST, SAFEGUARD-ATTR, TERMINAL-ATTR,
USER-ATTR, and USER-LIST.
All command names may be followed by [ / OUT fname / ] to define
a command-specific OUT file which is distinct from an out file that
might have been established by any LOG or OUT session commands.
ASSUME [ object-type ]
The ASSUME command establishes a default object-type so that it
need not be repeatedly entered for commands that require it. This
command also clears any previously established object-type.
object-type is [ VOLUME | SUBVOLUME | DISKFILE | TERMINAL ]
[ DEVICE | SUBDEVICE | PROCESS | SUBPROCESS ]
[ USER | ALIAS | EVENT-EXIT-PROCESS ]
When object-type is omitted, any previously established value is
cleared. Note that object-types GROUP, OBJECTTYPE, SAFEGUARD, and
SECURITY-GROUP can never be established or cleared with this command.
ASSUME OBJECTTYPE is also a parameter to the DISPLAY PROMPT command,
which causes the current assumed objecttype to be displayed in the
command line prompt.
