If the template name cannot be found, message BNH883I is returned.
CONSZERO (global order)
Sets the 4-byte console ID to zero.
COPY (global order)
COPY is used when the input is a multiline message. COPY copies one or
more lines from the input to the output. Unlike COPYREST, COPY copies
beginning with the current line, in ascending order.
One of the following parameters is required:
*
number
Indicates all remaining lines in the input are to be copied.
A non-negative number indicating the number of lines to be copied.
COPY includes the current output line. If you want the first line of a multiline
message to become the last line, you can code the following command stream:
EDIT 1.* 1 /* get first line and output at position 1 */
READLINE /* Get next line */
COPY * /* copy lines 2 through end to output */
WRITELINE /* write first line */
The WRITELINE in this example is required because COPYREST cancels the
implied WRITELINE created by the output order 1. See the description of
WRITELINE for more information.
COPYREST (global order)
COPYREST is used when the input is a multiline message. COPYREST copies
all unread lines from the input to the output. It is the equivalent of coding the
following process for all input messages minus one:
READLINE
1.* 1
WRITELINE
COPYREST does not affect or write the current output line. If you want the
first line of a multiline message to become the last line, you can code the
following process:
EDIT 1.* 1 /* get first line and output at position 1 */
COPYREST /* copy lines 2 through end to output */
WRITELINE /* write first line */
The WRITELINE in this example is required because COPYREST cancels the
implied WRITELINE created by the output order 1. See WRITELINE for more
information.
COPYREV (global order)
COPYREV is used when the input is a multiline message. COPYREV copies
one or more lines from the input to the output. Unlike COPY, COPYREV
begins with the current line, copies the number of lines requested, and displays
the output in reverse order.
One of the following parameters is required:
* Indicates all remaining lines in the input are to be copied.
number
A non-negative number indicating the number of lines to be copied.
FINDLINE n (global order)
Changes the current line to the absolute line number indicated by the
