MPE V to MPE XL: Getting Started

Lesson 4:  XEQ 

You should always try to keep file names from duplicating those of UDCs
or MPE commands.  If you do encounter name duplications and do not wish
to rename your command file, you can employ the new MPE XL XEQ command.

The XEQ command ensures execution of valid command files despite name
duplications.  The XEQ command plus the name of a compiled program or
command file will cause that file to execute.

Suppose you had a UDC and a command file with the same name, MYFILE.

         MYFILE 

would execute the UDC.

         XEQ MYFILE 

would ensure that your command file MYFILE executed.

Exercise 

11.  Create a command file that executes the SHOWTIME command; save it as
     LISTREDO. Execute this command file.
