USER or USE command
USE R changes the current user number. CPIM Plus starts with the current user
number set to O. Normally you can only access files identified with the current user
number, thus providing a way of partitioning-off the directory.
A file in User 0, with the'S Y S' attribute set can be accessed from all other user
numbers. This is a very powerful facility for making utility and applications
programs available
to
all user numbers, without having an actual copy of them in
each user area.
USER 3
.... will set the current user number to 3.
