Field Descriptions
∗This function key is active only if you have configured ViewPoint to run with
DSM/PM. When you press F5 or SF5, the DSM/Problem Manager Menu displays
on your screen.
2. TACL interactive field. This is an unlimited number of lines for TACL commands
and responses. You can access earlier pages with the PREV PAGE and NEXT
PAGE keys (or PG UP and PG DN keys) and recall earlier commands from the
TACL history buffer.
All TACL capabilities are available (for more information, see the TACL
Programmer’s Guide). You can use TACL commands in this field to access your
clipboard file and to use the Define Process functions. See Section 2, “Using
ViewPoint,” for examples of how to do these operations.
Note. When the TACL interactive field becomes full, the function-key legend (lines 1 and
2) rolls off the top of the screen. To get the legend back, press F15 to display the Help
screen, then press RETURN.
If you are using the RMI (Remote Maintenance Interface) terminal of a Compaq VLX
system, you cannot use the SF16 function key to exit from the ViewPoint application. The
RMI terminal uses SF16 to switch from a command interpreter (such as TACL) to the RMI
main menu. To exit from the ViewPoint application, type :SF16 after the TACL prompt.
