NBDIR Command Summary

It is a good idea to run NBDIR directly rather than through NBCTRL since only one person can run

NBCTRL at a time. This leaves NBCTRL free to be run by other users. Any user may run NBDIR.

However, some of the commands require special capabilities. See the list of capabilities in the

following “Special Command Features” section.

Any

NBDIR command may be passed via the INFO parameter of MPE's :RUN command. If the INFO

string contains a command, NBDIR will start without printing the program banner, execute the

command and terminate.

To run NBDIR:

1. To run NBDIR from MPE, use the following command:

: RUN NBDIR.PUB.NETBASE

You can also enter NBDIR from NBCTRL using the DIR command as follows:

: RUN NBCTRL.PUB.NETBASE
