4 Tailoring TGAL

060865 Tandem Computers Incorporated 4–1

You can modify several procedures in the TGAL code to suit your needs. The

procedures are:

BANNER

BOX^TAG

ERROR^MESSAGE

RESERVED^WORDS

TODAY

TRIGGER

Creating a New TGAL All of these procedures reside in an EDIT file called TGALUPS on the TGAL

subvolume of the release tape. If you recompile TGALUPS to customize TGAL, you

must use BINDER to strip the tailored TGALUPS object file. To alter your version of

TGAL, you edit TGALUPS, compile TGALUPS, then build your own TGAL files using

UPDATE. The following example assumes the sit update tape was installed on

$SYSTEM.

:VOLUME $SYSTEM.TGAL

:EDIT TGALUPS

(make the changes to the file)

:TAL / IN TGALUPS, OUT $S.#HOLD / upsobj
