2 Running ENFORM
The ENFORM command issued from the Command Interpreter calls the ENFORM
subsystem. If no parameters are specified, the ENFORM command appears as:
:ENFORM
The terminal from which the ENFORM command is entered is called the home
terminal. The syntax for the ENFORM command is:
ENFORM [ / [ IN input-filename ]
[ , [ OUT output-filename ] ] / ]
[ dict-subvol-name ] [ , message-table-filename ]
IN input-filename
specifies either the name of an EDIT file containing ENFORM source code or the
name of a compiled query file.
If this option is specified, ENFORM executes the code in the specified file and
returns you to the Command Interpreter prompt at the end of execution.
If this option is omitted, the ENFORM prompt (>) appears and you can enter
commands and statements either directly by typing them or indirectly by
specifying either the ?RUN or ?SOURCE commands. When this option is omitted,
the home terminal becomes the default input file.
OUT output-filename
specifies the name of the physical file to which output is directed. If this option is
omitted, ENFORM directs the output to the current output listing file (explained
later in this section.)
dict-subvol-name
is the name of the volume and subvolume upon which the dictionary resides. If
this parameter is omitted, ENFORM assumes the dictionary resides on the current
volume and subvolume. Either the DICTIONARY statement or the
?DICTIONARY command can be used to supply or change the dictionary name.
message-table-filename
is the name of the key-sequenced file containing a user-defined ENFORM message
table. ENFORM retrieves error and informational message text, help message text,
and/or the list of any redefined reserved words, system variables, option
variables, or command names from this file when this parameter is specified. If
this parameter is omitted, ENFORM retrieves message text from a message table
supplied by Tandem. Refer to the ENFORM User's Guide for information about
creating a user-defined message table.
The Command Interpreter ASSIGN command (described later in this section) can be
used to make up to 32 logical file assignments before the ENFORM subsystem is
called.
