Neoview Script Guide (R2.2)

number
is the number of commands to display. The default number is 10. The maximum number is
100.
Considerations
• In the Neoview Script interface, you must enter the command on one line. The command
does not require an SQL terminator.
• You can use the FC command to edit and reexecute a command in the history buffer, or use
the REPEAT command to reexecute a command without modifying it. See the “FC Command”
(page 91) or the “REPEAT Command” (page 103).
Example
Display the three most recent commands and use FC to redisplay one:
SQL>history 3
14> set schema sales;
15> show tables
16> show views
SQL>fc 14
SQL>set schema sales
....
Now you can use the edit capabilities of FC to modify and execute a different SET SCHEMA
statement.
LOCALHOST Command
The LOCALHOST command allows you to execute client machine commands. The LOCAL
HOST command is supported in all modes.
Syntax
LOCALHOST | LH <client m/c commands>
Considerations
In the Neoview Script interface, you must enter the command on one line. The command does
not require an SQL terminator.
The LOCALHOST command has a limitation. When input is entered for the operating system
commands (for example, date, time, and cmd), the input is not visible until you hit the enter
key.
Examples
If you are using a Windows system, dir lists the contents of the directory name. Similarly, if you
are on a Unix system you enter LOCALHOST LS to display the contents of the folder.
SQL>LOCALHOST dir
Volume in drive C is E-Client
Volume Serial Number is DC4F-5B3B
