INFO LOCAL.<br />

Overview<br />

INFO makes available two kinds of online documentation: local and update.<br />

Local Documentation<br />

Local documentation concerns the environment in which the program is run. It includes<br />

some or all of the following, depending on the operating system:<br />

• <strong>Command</strong>s or job control language for running the program.<br />

• Conventions for referring to files. These include instructions on how your computer’s<br />

operating system accesses or creates a particular file.<br />

• Conventions for handling tapes and other input/output devices.<br />

• Data formats. The formats the program reads and writes may differ from one computer<br />

and operating system to another.<br />

• Default values for parameters controlled by the SET command. Many defaults for these<br />

parameters are set at the individual installation. The SHOW command displays the values<br />

that are currently in effect. Local documentation may contain information on why one<br />

setting is preferred over another.<br />

• Information about your computer and operating system or your individual installation.<br />

Update Documentation<br />

Update documentation includes changes to existing procedures and facilities made after<br />

publication of this manual, new procedures and facilities, and corrections to this manual.<br />

Update documentation can be requested for all available releases, or for releases after a particular<br />

release.<br />
