VLIST Command
VLIST Command
Use the VLIST command to list a range of lines in a variable.
option
is any of these:
OUT file-name
QUIET
TO variable-level
OUT file-name
specifies a device, or a sequential file accessible to the sequential I/O (SIO)
facility, that is to receive the listing. The listing includes line numbers. If you
omit this option, TACL writes the listing to its current OUT file. If the QUIET
option is present, this option is ignored.
If you specify an OUT file that does not exist, TACL creates an EDIT file
named list-file. If you specify an OUT file that already exists, TACL appends
the information to the end of the file.
QUIET
suppresses the listing, even if the OUT option is supplied.
TO variable-level
is the name of an existing variable level to which the listing is to be appended.
Line numbers are not included. The QUIET option has no affect on this option.
variable-level
is an existing variable level containing the lines to be listed. It must not be in a
shared segment, and must not be a DIRECTORY, a STRUCT, or a STRUCT item.
range
specifies the line or lines to be listed. If you omit it, all lines are listed. A range
specification can be any of these:
A
line-num
line-num / line-num
A
specifies an individual line number. It can be any of these:
VLIST [ / option [ , option ] / ... ] variable-level
[ range ]
