SET
(KMON, device handler)
Defines or changes characteristics of device or pseudodevice handlers and the values
of some system parameters.
Format
SET entity condition[,condition,...]
Parameters
entity
Specifies a physical-device name, a pseudodevice name, or a system parameter.
• Device name
Specifies the device handler (physical or pseudo) whose characteristics you
want to modify. See Table 2 for the physical and pseudodevice handlers
operated on by this command. See Table 3–1 for a list of the standard RT–11
permanent device names. The colon (:) after each device name is optional.
• System parameter
Specifies a system parameter in the resident monitor that you may need
to modify. This allows you to control certain monitor features, such as error
handling or program swapping. The SET commands are valid for all monitors
unless otherwise specified.
The SET commands for a monitor, such as SET USR NOSWAP, set or clear
status words in the memory copy of the resident monitor.
condition
Specifies how you want the entity (device handler or system parameter) modified.
If you set more than one condition in a single SET command, separate the
conditions with commas; for example, the following command turns on the single-
line command editor, sets it to keypad editing functionality, and lets you use the
RECALL command with a mapped monitor:
SET SL RECALL,KED,ON
Description
SET commands let you enable, disable, and change such features as:
• Command-line editor (SET SL)
• Default editor (SET EDIT)
• Error handling (SET ERROR)
