REENTER

(KMON)

Starts the program at its reentry address (the start address minus 2).

Format

REENTER

Description

The REENTER command accepts no options or arguments. REENTER does not

clear or reset any memory areas. Use it to avoid reloading the same program for

subsequent execution. You can use REENTER to return to a system program or to

any program that allows for a REENTER after the program terminates. You can

also use REENTER after you have issued two CTRL/Cs to interrupt those programs.

If you issue the REENTER command and it is not valid, the message ?KMON-F-

Invalid command is displayed. You must start that program with an R or RUN

command. Note that if SET EXIT NOSWAP is in effect, you may be unable to

reenter the program.

In the following example, the directory program (DIR) lists the directory of DK: on

the line printer. Pressing

CTRL/C

twice interrupts the listing and returns you to the

monitor. REENTER starts DIR at its reentry address, and DIR prompts for a line

of input:

.R DIR

RET

*LP:=DK:*.*

CTRL/C

.REENTER

Note in the example above that using REENTER does not mean that the directory

listing continues from where it was interrupted, only that the DIRECTORY program

recommences execution.
