RESET 

Cancels file equations.

Syntax 

RESET {formaldesignator}
      {@               }
Parameters 

formal- designator    A formal file designator name in the form
                      file[.group[.account]] [:nodespec], for which a
                      FILE command has been issued.  The nodespec portion
                      may be an environment identifier indicating the
                      location of the file, or it may be $BACK.
                      Specifying $BACK means that the file resides one
                      "hop" back toward your local system (which may be
                      the local system itself).

@                     Signifies all formal file designators specified in
                      all FILE commands previously issued in this session
                      or job.

Operation Notes 

The RESET command resets a formal file designator to its original
meaning, canceling any FILE command that has been issued for this formal
file designator earlier in the current session or job.


NOTE  The nodespec parameter is not part of the 900 Series HP 3000
      Computer System Fundamental Operating System.  The NS3000/XL
      AdvanceNet subsystem must be purchased separately.  The nodespec 
      parameter is optional.  If you do not have NS3000/XL AdvanceNet,
      omitting the nodespec parameter makes no difference in the
      performance of the RESET command, however, specifying it does
      produce an error message.


Use 

This command may be issued from a session, job, program, or in BREAK.
Pressing Break has no effect on this command.

Example 

To cancel the effects of a previous FILE command that specified
characteristics for a file programmatically referred to as ALPHA enter:

     RESET ALPHA
