SET 

Defines elements of the command interpreter.  It also allows a job using
a spooled $STDLIST to mark its standard list device for deletion when the
job terminates.  (Native Mode)

Syntax 

                                                  [        {300  }]
                                                  [        {1200 }]
                                                  [        {2400 }]
SET [STDLIST={DELETE}] [;MSG={ON }] [;ECHO={ON }] [;SPEED ={4800 }]
    [        {SAVE  }] [     {OFF}] [      {OFF}] [        {9600 }]
                                                  [        {19200}]
                                                  [        {19.2K}]
Parameters 

DELETE                Flags the job's $STDLIST for deletion at job
                      termination.

SAVE                  Cancels the effect of a previous SET STDLIST=DELETE
                      command.  Default is SAVE.

ECHO                  Turns terminal echoing ON or OFF.

MSG                   Specifies whether or not TELL messages are
                      displayed on the user's terminal.  MSG=OFF prevents
                      TELL messages from appearing on the terminal.  WARN
                      messages override MSG=OFF and will appear on the
                      terminal.  (This parameter provides the same
                      function as the SETMSG command.)

SPEED                 Specifies the terminal's data transmission rate,
                      within the upper and lower bounds outlined above.
                      The user is responsible for manually changing the
                      terminal's speed setting.  (This parameter provides
                      the same function as the SPEED command.)

Operation Notes 

The SET command specifies several elements of the command interpreter
including the terminal echo and baud rate.

In a job, the SET command can be placed anywhere between the JOB and EOJ
statements.  It is most practical to place it at the end of a job stream
since the command does not execute if the job fails.  $STDLIST then
prints, allowing you to study your listing and to locate the problem.
The effect of a SET STDLIST=DELETE can be reversed by entering SET
STDLIST=SAVE into the job stream.  Note that the SET command works only
on jobs with a spooled $STDLIST.

Use 

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

Example 

The following example illustrates using the SET command from within a
program:

     !JOB EXAMPLE, USER.TECHPUB,XGROUP
     !CONTINUE
     !RUN UPDATE.PUB.SYS;PARM=1;MAXDATA=16000
     !IF JCW < FATAL THEN
     !SET STDLIST=DELETE
     !ENDIF
     !EOJ
