SWAP
NonStop NET/MASTER MS Commands

SWAP The SWAP command reverses the dimensions of the current logical windows. If you
have two windows open and visible on the screen, this command swaps the sizes of
the windows. This command is also assigned by default to the F9 function key; for
this reason, this function key is called the SWAP key. You can use the SWAP key
anywhere in NonStop NET/MASTER MS, not only from OCS.
If you are operating with a single window open, this command automatically opens
the second window, which displays the primary menu with the cursor positioned at
the Select Option ===> prompt. Entering the SWAP command with no operands
reverses the dimensions of the current logical windows.
SWAP [ PSKIP= menu-option ]
PSKIP= menu-option
specifies the primary menu option to invoke in the target window. When the
swap completes, the new window is positioned in the chosen primary menu
option.
Considerations
The default authority level of this command is 0.
You can enter this command from any NCL procedure, except the INIT NCL
procedure, by using either the CMD core statement or the INTCMD verb.
If you are operating with two windows open where each window occupies the
entire screen, this command hides the currently displayed window completely.
The other window takes over the entire screen area. The cursor appears in this
window.
If you are operating with two windows open and both windows are visible on the
screen—this occurs after you have used the SPLIT command—the cursor remains
in the window from which the command is executed after the dimensions are
swapped.
If you define a local function key with the SWAP keyword, this value remains
current while you are logged on to NonStop NET/MASTER MS. The value is not
lost when you exit from OCS.
For related information, see the SPLIT command.
