8-161
RUN[D|V] Command
sign); the first character must be alphabetic. (For network access, the name
must be no more than four characters.) If you omit this parameter, the new
process is not named and has only a CPU number and process number. If you
include NAME with no $process-name, TACL generates a name for the new
process. The name of the process appears in the destination control table
(DCT).
NOWAIT
means that TACL does not wait while the program runs but returns a command
input prompt after sending the startup message to the new process. If you omit
this option, TACL pauses while the program runs.
OUT [ list-file ]
is the output file of the new process. If you omit OUT list-file, the new
process uses the OUT file in effect for the current TACL (usually your home
terminal). If you include OUT with no list-file, spaces are sent as the
name of the output file. You cannot specify OUT if you specify OUTV or
WINDOW.
TACL allows the OUT file to be a DEFINE name, and passes the DEFINE
name to the process being executed. The process is responsible for handling
the DEFINE.
OUTV var-name
is a variable whose indicated level is cleared while retaining its type. Lines are
then added to it as the process writes to its OUT file. Prompt strings are not
written to the OUT variable. You cannot specify OUTV if you specify OUT or
WINDOW. For additional information about the use of OUTV, see
Considerations on page 8-163.
PFS num-pages
is the process file segment size, in 2048-byte pages, for the new process.
Specify num-pages as an integer value in the range 64 to 512. If you omit this
option, the number of pages is determined by a value in the program object
file.
PRI priority
specifies the execution priority of the new process; processes with higher
numbers run first. Specify priority as an integer in the range 1 to 199. If you
specify a priority greater than 199, the process runs at priority 199.
If the priority of the TACL process is 1 and priority for the new process is
not specified, TACL starts the new process at the priority of the TACL
process.
