PLISTF (UDC) 

The PLISTF UDC executes the LISTFILE command to list descriptions of one
or more disk files.

System-defined UDCs are not automatically available.  Your System Manager
must use the SETCATALOG command to make these UDCs available for your
use.  For example:

     SETCATALOG HPPXUDC.PUB.SYS;SYSTEM;APPEND 

Syntax 

LISTF [fileset] [,format_opt] [;outfile]

Parameters 

The following parameters are supported with the PLISTF UDC. Refer to the
LISTFILE command for a complete explanation of the parameters used with
the PLISTF UDC.

fileset               Specifies a set of files to be listed, including
                      MPE and HFS files.  If fileset is not specified,
                      the default is @.  If fileset includes more than
                      one file, be sure to separate the file names with
                      commas and enclose the set in parentheses, for
                      example:

                           :plistf (test1,test2,test3)

format_opt            An output format option.  If this parameter is
                      omitted, the default is FORMAT=0, which shows only
                      the file names.  The format option must be
                      specified as a numeric value.  Format names (for
                      example, QUALIFY) are not supported by this UDC.
                      Refer to the LISTFILE command for a complete
                      description of each available format option.

outfile               The name of the output file.  If this parameter is
                      omitted, the output is displayed to $STDLIST. The
                      outfile supports both MPE and HFS syntax.  The
                      outfile cannot be $NEWPASS.

Operation Notes 

The PLISTF UDC lists descriptions of one or more disk files at the level
of detail you select.  The UDC executes the following form of the
LISTFILE command:

LISTFILE fileset ,format_opt [>outfile]

Use 

This UDC may be issued from a session, a job, a program, or in break
mode.  Pressing Break aborts execution.

If a permanent file exists with the same name as specified as outfile,
then CIOR defaults are used rather than the PLISTF CCTL default.

Examples 

Refer to the LISTFILE command later in this chapter for examples.
