Step 4: Change Keywords and Messages in EDIT
Source File
BATCHLIB-file
specifies the BATCHLIB file from which you want to extract keywords and
messages.
EDIT-file
specifies the name of the EDIT file BATCHUTL creates for the keywords and
messages it extracts from BATCHLIB-file.
n
is a number in the range 0 through 6 identifying the keyword and message source.
You use this number in the RUN BATCHUTL command at Step 5 when converting
EDIT-file to a TAL source file. You also use the number in DEFINE
=_ZBAT_NLS at Step 9 to specify the keywords and messages for future
BATCHCOM sessions. The default is 0.
Step 4: Change Keywords and Messages in EDIT Source File
Make the required keyword and message changes in the EDIT file:
> EDIT EDITSRC
CURRENT FILE IS $DATA7.TRASH.EDITSRC
*FIX 654
654 2237 2Command not configured
.......... rdisabled by NBFLAGS procedure
654 2237 2Command disabled by NBFLAGS procedure

*EXIT
Considerations
The BATCHUTL-created EDIT file from Step 3 contains six sections. The first section
contains messages. The remaining sections contain keywords, tokens for days,
months, and times, and a NetBatch vocabulary. You can change the items in these
sections to suit your operational environment.
Supported Characters
BATCHCOM supports US ASCII characters in the ranges 64 through 93 and 96
through 125 (that is, characters from @ to ] inclusive and from ` to } inclusive). Support
for this character set enables you to specify keywords and messages in any language
that uses characters from the set.
Message Format
The first EDIT-file section contains messages in the form:
[ message^literal = ] [ - ] number [ ± number ] ,
-- severity-indicator message-text [ & -- message-text ]…
