HP Business BASIC/XL Migration Guide

Additional Commands 

The following paragraphs describe various commands you can use with the
migration aid:

:                         (this colon is the MPE prompt)

                          :  executes MPE commands from the migration
                          aid.  The colon is part of an MPE command.
                          Type it before the command name when you are
                          using MPE commands from the migration aid or
                          from within the HP Business BASIC/XL
                          interpreter.

HELP or H                 HELP or H prints a brief summary of migration
                          aid commands on your screen.

EXIT or E                 EXIT or E leaves the migration aid and returns
                          you to MPE.

!                         (exclamation point)

                          The exclamation point "!" is the comment
                          command.  Use it primarily for entering
                          comments in job streams.  In job streams, you
                          must precede the "!" with a blank to prevent
                          MPE from changing it to a colon ":".  The
                          migration aid places any comment lines in the
                          output file.  Otherwise, comments are ignored.
