[NO]UCL
Description
CLI means Command-Line Interpreter. The SET CLI command enables/disables
four command-line interpreters: CCL, DCL, UCF, and UCL.
• CCL is the Concise Command Language interpreter. This interpreter allows you
to run utility programs and pass them command strings on a single line. See the
RT–11 System Utilities Manual for a description of this interpreter.
• DCL is the Digital Command-Line interpreter that understands the commands
in this manual. See Part I of this manual for a description of DCL.
• UCF is the User Command First interpreter through which you can change or
redefine DCL or CCL commands. See the Introduction to RT–11 for a description
of how to use the UCL and UCF interpreters.
• UCL is the User Command Linkage interpreter through which you can define
your own commands.
The CSI command-string interpreter is not affected by the SET CLI command.
The Order of Command Processing
The RT–11 monitor passes commands to the interpreters in the order described
below. Once the appropriate interpreter translates a command, the monitor executes
it. If no interpreter can translate a command, you will get an error message.
• If the UCF command interpreter has been enabled, it is the first interpreter to
look at a command. If the UCF interpreter translates the command, the monitor
executes it; if the interpreter cannot translate the command, the monitor passes
the command to the DCL interpreter (if it is enabled).
Since the UCF interpreter looks at all commands first, UCF command processing
slows down the processing of all commands that are not UCF commands.
