Chapter 7 The Command Interpreter Program
Have you ever been in the middle of an application and wished there were
a quick way to access the MPE prompt and MPE commands without suspending
or exiting your application?
The command interpreter is a program that interprets MPE commands and
executes them. MPE XL users can now access the command interpreter as a
program. The CI program resides in PUB.SYS and can be run from within
itself (at the MPE prompt) or from within some application programs.
* Lesson 1 introduces the CI.PUB.SYS program and how it may be accessed
(at the MPE prompt) and exited.
* Lesson 2 describes how more than one level of the command interpreter
can be accessed and what special capability is needed to run programs
from those levels.
