                          Help for QUEUE %105

To enter a queue request, type:
          queue-name:jobname = file1, file2, ...

The default job name is the same as the first file name.

To list the queues, type:
          output-filespec/LIST = queue-name:jobname[ppn]

Default queue is LPT:.

To create a batch request, type
          INP:jobname = control-filespec, log-filespec

Default jobname is the filename of the log file.
Default control file extension is .CTL.
Default log file extension is .LOG.

When listing the queues, the default listing  filespec  is  TTY:.LSQ[-].
Queue-name  defaults  to  all queues.  If queue-name is ALL:, all queues
are listed.  Queues at a specific station can be listed by referring  to
queue  xxxSnn:  for station nn (e.g.  LPTS3:  or ALLS17:).  Queues for a
specific device can be refered  to  by  giving  the  device  name  (e.g.
LPT2:).

Wild card "*" matches any name, entension, project, programmer, or  SFD.
Wild card "?" is wild for one character only.

On batch creates, if no device is specified and the desired file is  not
found on disk, then QUEUE will look for the file on device CTL.  If /NEW
is specified, CTL will never be searched.
