ENABLE Reference Manual

RUNNING ENABLE
Interactive Mode
• If the OUT file specification is a magnetic tape, ENABLE
specifies that two consecutive file marks are written just
before the file is closed.
INTERACTIVE MODE
ENABLE functions in interactive mode when you enter commands from
a terminal keyboard. ENABLE prompts for a command by displaying
the percent symbol (%); for example:
:ENABLE
ENABLE - T9155B00 - (01APR84) SYSTEM \XYZ
%
When you enter a command, ENABLE executes the command and issues
another prompt.
If you press the terminal BREAK key when you are using ENABLE in
interactive mode, the following occurs:
• Pressing the BREAK key within a single or multiline ENABLE
command causes ENABLE to ignore the command or command lines.
ENABLE displays a prompt, and you can enter another command.
• Pressing the BREAK key when you are using the operating
command FC (explained later in this section and in Section 4),
causes ENABLE to ignore the FC command and the command line.
ENABLE displays a prompt, and you can enter another command.
• Pressing the BREAK key at any other time, including on the
ENABLE prompt, returns you to the command interpreter prompt
without terminating ENABLE. If you type the word STOP in
response to the command interpreter prompt, you terminate the
ENABLE process. You do not terminate other processes, such as
ENABLOBJ or SCOBOLX. Since these processes could still be
running, you should type the command STATUS *,TERM to
determine the CPU and process numbers (PIN) of any running
processes. If you want to terminate these processes, type:
STOP <cpu>, <pin>
