EXIT Command

Examples: ENV Command

EXIT Command

The EXIT command stops PTrace.

Consideration: EXIT Command

The end-of-file character (CTRL-Y) has the same effect as the EXIT command.

FC Command

Use the FC (fix command) to edit or to repeat the previous command line. FC can be

entered only when the input device is a terminal or a process.

FC displays the previous command line, up to 132 characters, and prompts for editing

input with a period (.). Continued command lines, commands entered with the

ampersand (&) continuation character, are displayed fully assembled without the

ampersand.

The FC command in PTrace is identical in operation to the FC command in the TACL

command interpreter. See the description of the FC command in the TACL Reference

Manual for a complete explanation.

FILTER Command

The FILTER command sets filtering criteria for displaying trace records. It allows you to

select records for display according to the content of the record. Selection criteria

established by the SELECT command defines the initial selection environment. The

FILTER command defines further selection criteria within the boundaries established

by the SELECT command. The filter options available depend on the subsystem for

which PTrace is displaying records and are described in Appendix A, Subsystem-

Specific Information. For some subsystems, there are no filter options, and this

command cannot be used.

?ENV COUNT Displays the number of records in the current trace file. If the

PTrace COUNT command has not been issued since the last

FROM command, the count is not available.

?ENV RECORD Displays the record number of the current record.
