SET
Considerations
For a SeeView process to accept a SEND command, that process must have a task 
named MYMAIL. If a task MYMAIL has not been declared, the Seedit SEND or MSG 
command receives a security error 48. Anyone designing a custom shell that does not 
coexist with the Standard SeeShell needs to include the following statement in the 
custom shell to permit the MSG and SEND statements: 
TASK MYMAIL := $my;
Example
This example demonstrates the SEND command: 
SET
The SET command displays and alters the log file name, the maximum records to be 
displayed, or the maximum time the program is to wait for a control 27 to complete 
before checking if file EOF changed. 
LOGFILE filename 
specifies the log file to be monitored with the MONITOR command. 
MAXRECS records 
specifies the approximate number of most recent records to display when the log 
file is first monitored. 
MAXWAIT seconds 
specifies the maximum time that the program is to wait for a control 27 to complete 
before checking if file EOF changed. 
Note. The standard SeeShell automatically declares a task MYMAIL as a socket for MSG and 
SEND commands.
