GET
EXAMPLES
A>GET FILE XINPUT
A>MYPROG
Tells the system to activate the GET utility. Since SYSTEM
is not specified, the system reads the next input line from
the console and executes MYPROG. If MYPROG program
requires console input, it is taken from the file XINPUT.
When MYPROG terminates, the system reverts back to the
console for console input.
A>GET FILE XIN2 [SYSTEM]
Immediately directs the system to get subsequent
console input from file XIN2 because it includes the SYSTEM
option. The system reverts back to the console for
console input when it reaches the end of file in XIN2. Or
XIN2 may redirect the system back to the console if it
contains a GET CONSOLE command.
A>GET CONSOLE
Tells the system to get console input from the console.
This command may be used in a file (previously specified in
a GET FILE command), which is already being read by the
system for console input. It is used to re-direct the
console input back to the console before the end-of-file
is reached.
