SSH Reference Manual

OPEN <STN-process-name>

OPEN opens the specified STN process for subsequent commands.

<STN-process-name> specifies the process to be opened. If another process is already open, that process is closed. If the

OPEN fails, all STNCOM commands requiring an application are rejected until a successful OPEN is completed. The

STN version and vproc are displayed after a successful OPEN, before the STNCOM prompt.

Examples:

OPEN $STN

OPEN $STN2

OPENER_WAIT <seconds>

OPENER_WAIT specifies a timeout at the beginning of the session while waiting for the application to first open the

window. OPENER_WAIT allows values from 1-300 (1 second to 5 minutes) and defaults to 30 (seconds). Note that

AUTODEL_WAIT formerly performed this function, but has been changed as described.

If no application opens the window, after OPENER_WAIT seconds, the screen will be erased (for 6530 terminals) and

the following message appears:

STN38 No application program active on this terminal for nnn seconds. Session terminated.

This message will be displayed for several seconds, then the session will be terminated.

OPENER_WAIT now also applies to dynamic window sessions which before release A83 had a fixed wait time of 60

seconds. For this case, the existing error message STN41 is used.

OUT <filename> | STOP

STOP

Output to home teminal

If a disc file that does not exist, it is created as file code 101 unstructured and is written as an edit-101 file.

If an existing unstructured disc file with code 101, it is erased and written as an edit-101 file.

If an existing disc file that is not unstructured or not code 101, or a non disc file, then the file is opened and sent

lines of output.

OUTPUT_RESET Y | N

Determines if INPUT_TIMEOUT applies to sessions that have ongoing output, even if there is no keyboard input. When

OUTPUT_RESET=Y, any application output to a terminal resets the timer just as if input was received from the

terminal. This means that a terminal that regularly updates the display, such as an EMS or console log, may never time

out. When OUTPUT_RESET=N, then INPUT_TIMEOUT applies even if output is being displayed, giving additional

security. Default is Y. See also INPUT_TIMEOUT.

PAUSE

PAUSE suspends the STNCOM prompt. Use BREAK to return to the STNCOM prompt.
