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.
