Commands ABORT to BYE
Examples
To enter commands and data from your standard input device, with program listing and
output transmitted to the standard output device, enter:
BASIC
You may also submit commands and data to the BASIC/V interpreter through input files
that you have stored on disk. Files created using the editor must be kept with the UNN
(unnumbered) option of the editor KEEP command. In this example, BASIC/V interpreter
commands and statements are submitted from the command file MYCOMDS. The data that
the program uses is stored in the input file MYDATA. The program listing and output are
written to the file MYLIST.

Operation Notes
This command compiles, prepares, and executes a compatibility mode program from a
