FUP Commands
KEY { record-spec | key-value }
specifies the primary-key value for the starting record of a disk file. FUP begins
reading the input file at the record you name with KEY.
Specify record-spec as an integer in the range 0 through
(512000000 * 2,048) -1.
Give the starting relative byte address for record-spec (for unstructured
files).
Give the starting record number for record-spec (for relative files).
Give ordinal-record-num for record-spec (for entry-sequenced
files).
Use key-value to indicate the approximate position of the starting record for
key-sequenced files. Specify key-value as either string or:
"[" { string } [ , string ] ... "]"
{ 0:255
You can specify a list of strings with each string enclosed by quotation
marks or integers representing byte values in the range 0 through 255. You
must enclose the list of strings and integers (if specified) in square
brackets.
Note. The brackets in key-value syntax are enclosed in quotation marks to
indicate that they are part of the parameter—and not to indicate that the
parameter is optional. Do not include the quotation marks when you type the
brackets.
For example, specify a key value as the ASCII string "T905", followed by a
word containing the integer value zero, and a word containing the integer
value nine:
key-specifier
is a one-character or two-character string (specified inside quotation marks)
specifying the alternate key to be used for positioning purposes.
ALTKEY key-value
specifies the alternate key of the starting record for disk files. FUP begins
reading the input file at the specified record. Specify key-value for key-
sequenced files according to the description of key-value in
spec | key-value
} [ , 0:255
[ "T905", 0, 0, 0, 9 ]
}.
