PRINT
volume, RT–11 copies each input file to a separate output file with the same file
name and type as the input file. The job name is used only in the JOBNAME
field of the banner page. The handler for the output device must be loaded in
memory (see the LOAD command description).
The following example sends the files FILE1.LST, FILE2.LST, and FILE3.LST to
files of the same name on DU1:. The job name JOB5 appears in the JOBNAME
field of the banner page:
.PRINT/NAME:DU1:JOB5 FILE1, FILE2, FILE3
The files from this example reside on DU1: as JOB5.JOB.
/NEWFILES
Prints only those files that have the current date. The following example shows
a convenient way to print all new files after a session at the computer:
.PRINT/NEWFILES *
Files copied:
DK:OUTFIL.LST to LP:
DK:REPORT.LST to LP:
/OUTPUT:dev:[filespec]
Specifies the output device for the PRINT command. The default device for dev
is DK. The default output for the PRINT command without the /OUTPUT option
is the printer.
/PRINTER
Forces files to be copied directly to the printer if QUEUE is running. This option
causes PIP to copy the file to the printer, which bypasses QUEUE processing,
but not SPOOL processing.
/PROMPT
(Valid only with QUEUE) Continues a command string on subsequent lines.
When you use /PROMPT, you can enter file specifications on subsequent lines
directly to QUEMAN, as described in the chapter on QUEMAN in the RT–11
System Utilities Manual. Terminate the command with two slashes (//).
The following example uses /PROMPT to print FILE1, FILE2, FILE3, FILE4,
and FILE5:
.PRINT/PROMPT FILE1
*FILE2, FILE3
*FILE4
*FILE5//
/QUERY
Makes RT–11 request confirmation from you before it performs the operation.
/QUERY is useful on operations that involve wildcards, when you may not be
sure which files RT–11 selected for an operation.
