Running NBTCOM

NBTCOM is the system operator interface to NBT. NBTCOM provides for

configuration, status, and maintenance requests. You can store your NBTCOM

commands in an EDIT format disk file or enter them conversationally. You can direct

your output to a terminal, printer, disk file, or spooler. Standard OBEY and FC

commands are provided. A built-in HELP command is used; you can easily change the

HELP dictionary or extend it to conform to local requirements by modifying the

supplied NBTCHELP EDIT file.

When NBTCOM is run, an implied OPEN $NBT command is issued prior to prompting

for input.

To start NBTCOM, use the standard TACL RUN command, as shown in the following

example:
