Running MS-LIB
To start MS-LIB, you can do any of the following:
• Enter the LIB command without options; then respond
to the three prompts.
• Enter the LIB command with options, thus avoiding
the prompts.
• Enter the LIB command, specifying a response file (a
file that contains answers to the prompts).
Several command characters help simplify the task of using MS-
LIB. They are discussed later in the "Command Characters" sec-
tion. You may want to refer to that section when reading about
the different methods for starting MS-LIB.
Method 1: The Keyboard Responses
To use this method, type:
LI B
I
ENTER
I
This command loads MS-LIB into memory and displays three
prompts, one at a time. The prompts are discussed in detail
below.
Library File:
Enter the name of the library you want to create or modify. If
you omit an extension, MS-LIB assumes .LIB. For example, to
specify the library SAMPLE.LIB, at the prompt type:
SAMPLE
I
ENTER
I
If you specify a library that does not exist, MS-LIB displays:
Library file does not exist. Create?
r-'
Type
YES
I
ENTER
I to create the file or
NO
I
ENTER
I to stop the
I :
session.
