RJE User/Programmer Reference Manual

Interactive Mode Operations 

During interactive operations, the user enters commands one by one at the
terminal.  RJE is using $STDINX (the default from the :RJE command) as
the command file.

See Chapter 5, "Using RJE in Programmatic Mode," for interactive mode
operations in programmatic mode.

Starting Interactive Mode 

Interactive mode starts with the entry of the :RJE command (MPE).
Following the resulting start message from the system, RJE displays a #
prompt on the screen for your entry of the first RJE command.

Ending Interactive Mode 

Interactive mode is ended with use of the #RJEND command.  This transmits
an EOT control character to the remote processor.  It then performs a
line disconnect operation and terminates the RJE subsystem.

Command Files 

After a command file specified in an #RJCMDFILE subsystem command has
been processed, RJE begins processing subsystem commands from the default
command file, $STDINX.

If the command file specified in the subsystem command #RJCMDFILE cannot
be opened, $STDINX will become the command file.

Error Handling 

Errors occurring during execution cause display of an error message
followed by the # prompt.

[CTRL]-Y 

If a command file specified in the #RJCMDFILE subsystem command contains
a [CTRL]-Y interruptible command and a [CTRL]-Y is entered, subsequent
commands will not be executed and the command file will be closed.
Control will return to the interactive terminal.

If a [CTRL]-Y is entered while an #RJCONTINUE error recovery is in
progress and before a transmitted data set is received or all the
commands in a command file are executed, data set transmission will
conclude, processing will stop, and control will return to the
interactive terminal.

If a command file other than $STDINX (the default) is specified with the
:RJE command, and a [CTRL]-Y is entered during a [CTRL]-Y interruptable
command, the remaining commands in the file will not be processed and
control will return to the interactive terminal.

Special Forms 

The use of special forms is accomplished by the capabilities of the HASP,
ASP, or JES system of the host computer and by the spooler subsystem of
the HP 3000.  Example 7 illustrates the use of special forms with JES2.
