NAME

tsm.command - send commands to the Terminal Session Manager, TSM

SYNOPSIS

/usr/tsm/bin/tsm.command

command

DESCRIPTION

tsm.command is used to send a command string programmaticly to the Terminal Session Manager

(TSM), as if the string were typed on the TSM command line.

tsm.command fails unless it is run from

inside a TSM session. Actions caused by

tsm.command

affect only the instance of TSM that

tsm.command is run under. command can have any value that is a valid key sequence for the TSM com-

mand line. The sequence should not include the "hotkey" character that normally initiates the command

line mode of TSM. The sequence should end at the point where TSM exits command mode. If it ends

prematurely, TSM behaves as though escape was pressed, which exits command mode, usually canceling

the command. \r should be used to indicate a return key. If no arguments are given on the command

line, the program prompts for input from the user. If a

ˆC terminates the sequence, the remainder of the

sequence is accepted from the user.
