TELL TERM
TELL TERM
This command displays a message on a terminal or set of terminals. The TCP waits for
the terminal operator to complete the current screen before displaying the message, so
normal operation is not disrupted.
pathmon-object
specifies the internal PATHMON object name that is displayed in the header of a
STATUS TERM command. For example, PM0000 is the first pathmon-object.
term-name
specifies the name of a TERM object (either a configured TERM object or a
temporary TERM object created with the RUN PROGRAM command) on which a
message is to be displayed. If an INTELLIGENT terminal is included on the list, it
is ignored.
GROUP group-name
specifies the name of a set of TERM objects, each configured as a member of the
specified group. The TELL TERM command is issued to each TERM object
associated with this group.
*
issues the TELL TERM command to all terminals (configured or temporary TERM
objects) in the Pathway/XM environment. If option is also specified, PXMCOM
issues the command to all TERM objects meeting the criteria specified.
"string"
specifies the message text. The quotation mark characters are required.
SEL or STATE
issues the TELL TERM command only to TERM objects in the specified state. You
can substitute SEL for STATE. Possible states are:
RUNNING NOT RUNNING
STOPPED NOT STOPPED
SUSPENDED NOT SUSPENDED
TELL TERM { [ pathmon-object. ]term-name } , "string"
