Enhanced Commands

Scroll Prev Top Next More

There will be commands whose syntax has been enhanced for your benefit. Most of these commands will not require mandatory changes other than for an enhanced display (CHOOSE, DIALOG, PAUSE), but the PRINT command is an example of a command that has been enhanced 20 times over, and will require you to alter your syntax.

 

You may have this:

 

OUT PRINTER

PRINT bulletin SORTED BY poscl

OUT screen

 

and will replace it with this:

 

PRINT bulletin ORDER BY poscl ASC OPTION PRINTER

 

or even this:

 

PRINT bulletin ORDER BY poscl ASC OPTION PRINTER +

|SHOW_CANCEL_DIALOG OFF |TRAY 2 |COLLATION ON +
