Chapter 2 Command Interpreter Enhancements
The MPE XL operating system offers a variety of improvements to some of
the MPE V/E functions. Some of these enhancements provide you with
convenient shortcuts, but are not required for the successful use of MPE
XL.
* Lessons 1 and 2 in chapter 2 introduce a new feature called "implied
RUN" that allows you to run programs without typing the RUN command.
These lessons will be useful to all users.
* Lessons 3 through 7 teach some new commands that will make working
online much easier. The modified REDO command and the new DO command
make reexecution of command lines more efficient; the new LISTREDO
command allows you to list the command lines you have entered during
your session. These lessons will be useful for all users.
* Lesson 8 introduces the new, more flexible syntax for the new MPE XL
commands. If you are unfamiliar with the syntax rules for MPE V/E,
you may want to skip this lesson.
