NEWCI Command (CI Elimination)

NOTE

In the above example the “:newci payroll.pub.payroll” command would

not be allowed if the RUN command had been used in place of the NEWCI

command to load TDP.

NEWCI CI.PUB.SYS

The NEWCI command can be used to replace the current CI process with the standard

Hewlett- Packard Command Interpreter (CI.PUB.SYS). When CI.PUB.SYS is executed

using the NEWCI command it functions exactly the same as it does at logon time (see table

above).

NOTE

This example assumes that the application program payroll.pub.payroll

allows the user to enter CI commands interactively (preﬁxed with a :). This is

a common feature in MPE/iX application programs - but it does vary from

program to program. In this example the command “newci ci.pub.sys” could

be executed by either the COMMAND or HPCICOMMAND intrinsic.
