SET TERM
ECHO { ON | OFF | CURRENT }
overrides the terminal echo mode (that is, the mode configured for a terminal at
system generation time) so that character input appears correctly on the terminal.
The ECHO attribute supports terminals running in conversational or intelligent
mode.
If you omit this attribute, the default is ON.
EXCLUSIVE { ON | OFF }
specifies whether a TCP should open a terminal for exclusive or shared access.
If you omit this attribute, the default is OFF.
FILE file-name
specifies the name of a terminal or a process emulating a terminal by converting
communications to the form required by a nonsupported terminal.
file-name must be represented in network form. It begins with a $ (dollar sign)
followed by one to six alphanumeric characters; maximum of seven characters
including the $. The first character must be alphabetic.
Defaults for file name expansion are based on the values of the SYSTEM and
DEFAULT attributes of the associated NODE object.
The following is an example of a file name for a process emulating a terminal:
\MARS.$PRO45.#X25LA.TERM45
where $PRO45 is the process file name and #X25LA is a communication line.
If you define a process file name, you must also define a corresponding terminal
type using the TYPE attribute.
ON Directs input to appear on the terminal screen.
OFF Corrects the display by suppressing the duplicate characters (if a
terminal is configured so that it displays input characters). If you
define this option for the supported terminal types T16-6520, T16-
6530, and T16-6540, no input characters appear on the terminal
screen.
CURRENT Directs the TCP to obtain the operating mode of the terminal from the
operating system and to use that mode when it opens the terminal. If
you specify this option for a process that is running as a terminal
emulator, this attribute value defaults to ON.
ON Directs a TCP to open the terminal for exclusive access. The TCP
cannot allow simultaneous access of any kind to the terminal by any
other process.
OFF Directs a TCP to open the terminal for shared access. The TCP allows
simultaneous read and/or write access to the terminal by other
processes.
