COMMAND CAN NO LONGER BE USED TO SUBMIT TO THE INPUT QUEUE.

NEEDED FOR FUTURE PASSES.
.PARAGRAPH
1145	^SUPPORT THE OPTION FILE, ^^SWITCH.INI\\, BY CALLING
^^.OSCAN\\.   ^EXCEPT ON ^^KJOB\\ CALLS, THE PREFIX LINE
IS "^^QUEUE\\".  ^AT ^^KJOB\\ TIME, THE PREFIX

.PARAGRAPH
1146	^ADD A NEW SWITCH, ^^/PATH:\\[DIRECTORY]
WHICH ALLOWS THE USER TO SPECIFY THE INPUT QUEUE JOB'S DEFAULT
PATH.  ^THIS WILL BE IGNORED UNTIL ^^LOGIN\\ AND ^^BATCON\\

.INDENT 5
?^^ FILE NAME ILLEGAL IN DEFAULT PATH
.INDENT 5
? WILDCARD ILLEGAL IN DEFAULT PATH\\
.PARAGRAPH
1147	^ADD SWITCHES /^^NO\\XXX FOR
THE APPROPRIATE /XXX SWITCHES TO COUNTER THEIR EFFECT.

.PARAGRAPH
1150	(^^SPR\\ 10-9849) ^IF THE USER SPECIFIES THE DEFAULT
EXTENSION ON A PRINT REQUEST, TRY ^^.LPT\\,
THEN ^^.LST\\, THEN NULL.  ^THUS, IF THE USER HAS A FILE
^^FOO.LST\\, HE CAN PRINT IT BY TYPING ".^^PRINT FOO\\".

.PARAGRAPH
1151	(^^SPR \\10-8898) ^FIX MULTIPLIERS ON /^^CORE\\
TO BE 1024 INSTEAD OF 1000.  ^ALSO ALLOW THE SUFFIX
^P TO MULTIPLY BY 512.

OF PROTECTED LOG FILE WHOSE EXTENSION IS .^^LPT.\\ ^THE
SYMPTOM WAS A ^^HALT\\.
.PARAGRAPH

.PARAGRAPH
1154	^FIX 1147.
.PARAGRAPH
1155	^IN LISTING THE AFTER PARAMETER,
IF IT IS MORE THAT ONE DAY AWAY, PREFIX THE TIME WITH
"+N^D".
.PARAGRAPH
1156	^PROCESS DEFERED REQUESTS UNLESS ^^KJOB\\ HAS
SUPPRESSED THEM.  ^THERE IS STILL NO SUPPORT FOR THE
^^/DEFER\\ AND ^^/ZDEFER\\ COMMANDS, BUT IF THE USER
CREATES A ^^TMP:\\ FILE NAMED NNN^^DFR.TMP\\, IT WILL
BE PROCESSED AT ^^KJOB\\ TIME.
.PARAGRAPH
1157	^CHANGE THE INTERPRETATION OF ".^^PRINT [\A,\B]\\"
TO BE LIST THE QUEUES FOR USER [A,B] INSTEAD OF SUBMIT
A PRINT REQUEST OF *.^^LPT[\\A,B].  ^THIS REFLECTS
BETTER HUMAN ENGINEERING.  ^THE EXACT CONDITION FOR
THIS INTERPRETATION IS THAT THERE IS EXACTLY ONE INPUT
SPECIFICATION, NO OUTPUT SPECIFICATIONS (NO =), AND
NO FILE NAME OR EXTENSION WAS TYPED.
.PARAGRAPH
1160	^TYPE SINGLE VS. PLURAL CORRECTLY IN THE TOTALS
LINE OF QUEUE LISTINGS.
.PARAGRAPH
1161	(^^SPR 10-\\?????) ^ADD SWITCH ^^/DELETE\\ AS
SYNONOMOUS WITH ^^/DISPOSE:RENAME\\.
.PARAGRAPH
1162	^ON A LISTING REQUEST, IF /^^SEQUENCE\\ IS
SPECIFIED, LIST JUST THOSE ENTRIES WITH THAT SEQUENCE NUMBER.
.PARAGRAPH
1163	^CHANGE THE FORMAT OF THE ARGUMENT OF /^^LIST\\ TO
BE A KEYWORD.  ^THIS IS PREPARATORY TO SUPPORTING DETAILED
LISTINGS, ALTHOUGH THIS HAS NOT YET BEEN DONE.
.PARAGRAPH
1164	^REQUIRE A VALUE ON ^^/BEGIN\\.
.PARAGRAPH
1165	(^^SPR\\ 10-7847) ^MOVE THE ISSUING OF THE
TOTAL BLOCKS MESSAGE TO AFTER ^^QMANGR\\ HAS
COMPLETED SUBMITTING THE REQUEST.
.PARAGRAPH
1166	^IF A SPECIFIC QUEUE IS SPECIFIED, LIST JUST
ENTRIES FROM THAT QUEUE.  ^THUS, ^^LPT0:\\ MEANS JUST
ENTRIES SPECIFIC TO ^^LPT0\\ AND ^^LPTS3:\\ MEANS JUST
THOSE REQUESTS SPECIFICALLY FOR ^^LPTS3\\.  ^IN ORDER TO
GET ALL REQUESTS THAT MIGHT END UP ON A SPECIFIC DEVICE,
LIST BOTH THE UNIT AND STATION QUEUES.
.PARAGRAPH
1167	^FOR LISTINGS ONLY, ADD PSEUDO QUEUE
"^^ALL:\\" WHICH MATCHES ALL QUEUES (THIS IS THE DEFAULT).
^THIS IS PARTICULARLY USEFUL WHEN COMBINED
WITH EDIT 1166 SO THAT "^^ALLS3:"\\ LISTS ALL QUEUES
FOR STATION 3.
.PARAGRAPH
1170	^WHEN CREATING REQUESTS AT ^^KJOB\\ TIME, USE THE
RIGHT HALF OF THE FILE NAME OF SPOOLED FILES TO DETERMINE
WHICH QUEUE TO PLACE THE FILE INTO.  ^A SEPARATE
REQUEST WILL NOW BE CREATED FOR EACH STATION OR DEVICE
WHICH HAS HAD FILES SPOOLED TO IT BY ^^FILSER\\.  ^IF
THE RIGHT HALF OF THE NAME IS GIBBERISH, THEN IT IS
SENT TO THE CURRENT STATION (SETTING OF ^^.LOCATE\\
AT ^^KJOB\\ TIME).  ^THE LOG AND *.^^LST\\ FILES
ARE ALWAYS SENT TO THE CURRENT STATION.
^THUS, FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE USER CREATED FILES ON
DEVICES ^^"LPT0:", "LPTS2:"\\ AND ^^"LPTS4:\\" AND WAS
LOCATED AT STATION 4 AT ^^KJOB \\TIME, THEN THE LOG
FILE, JUNK SPOOL FILES, AND *.^^LST\\ FILES 
TOGETHER WITH ???^^S4.LPT\\ FILES WOULD BE PLACED IN
A QUEUE FOR STATION 4 (^^LPTS4:\\), THEN THE
???^^S2.LPT\\ FILES WOULD BE QUEUED TO STATION 2
AND THE ???0.^^LPT\\ FILES WOULD BE QUEUED TO
^^LPT0:\\.  ^THIS IS DONE IN SUCH A WAY THAT NO
EXTRA PASSES ARE MADE OVER THE USER'S DIRECTORY
THAN ARE NECESSARY.  ^THUS, THE TYPICAL JOB
WILL NOW MAKE ONE PASS WHICH QUEUES TO HIS
CURRENT STATION.  ^ONLY IF OTHER WORK IS NOTICED AT THAT
TIME, WILL EXTRA PASSES BE ATTEMPTED.
.PARAGRAPH
1171	^REQUIRE AN EQUAL SIGN ON A /^^MODIFY\\ OR /^^KILL\\
REQUEST.  ^THIS WILL ELIMINATE A LARGE NUMBER OF FRUSTRATING
USER ERRORS.  ^IF THE USER FORGETS THE PATTERN AND TYPES
^^.PRINT#FOO/KILL\\ INSTEAD OF ^^.PRINT#FOO/KILL=\\,
^^QUEUE\\ WILL NOW ISSUE THE ERROR MESSAGE,
"?#^^SPECIFY JOB NAME LEFT OF EQUAL SIGN\\".
^ALSO NOTE THAT SOME JOB NAME MUST BE SPECIFIED UNLESS
THE /^^SEQUENCE\\ SWITCH IS GIVEN (THE NAME CAN BE *).
^THUS, THE USER CAN NOT STUMBLE INTO THE SITUATION OF
KILLING ALL HIS REQUESTS.
.PARAGRAPH
1172	^WHEN ^^QUEUE\\ IS INVOKED BY A COMMAND AND IS NOT
LOGGED IN AND IS DRIVEN FROM A ^^PTY\\, CONSIDER IT
TO BE RUNNING UNDER THE SAME ^^PPN\\ AS THE CONTROLLING
JOB FOR PURPOSES OF ^^CHKACC\\, ETC.
.PARAGRAPH
1173	^MORE OF 1171.
.PARAGRAPH
1174	^WHEN ISSUING THE MESSAGE "QUEUE LISTING ON FILE",
INCLUDE THE FILE'S EXTENSION.
.PARAGRAPH
1175	^CORRECTLY CHECK READ PROTECTIONS ON A ^^UFD\\
BEING PRINTED.
.PARAGRAPH
1176	^MORE OF 1157.
.PARAGRAPH
1177	(^^SPR\\ 10-11141) ^MAKE IT ILLEGAL TO /^^MODIFY/KILL\\
UNLESS EITHER LOGGED IN OR THE SUB-JOB OF A LOGGED IN JOB,
OR THE SUB-SUB-JOB ...
.PARAGRAPH
1200	^FIX BUG INTRODUCED IN SOME EARLIER EDIT.
.PARAGRAPH
1201	^CHANGE THE PLOT TIME LIMIT TO BE A FUNCTION OF THE LENGTH
OF THE FILES.  ^THE LIMIT WILL NOW BE ENFORCED BASED ON THE
NUMBER OF INCREMENTS SENT TO THE PLOTTER.  ^THE UNIT IS
20,000 INCREMENTS WHICH CORRESPONDS TO ABOUT 1 MINUTE ON A
300 INCREMENT/SEC_. PLOTTER.
.PARAGRAPH
1202	^PROPERLY RESORE ^^.JBFF\\ AND ^^.JBREL\\ ON
EACH *.
.PARAGRAPH
1203	(^^SPR\\ 10-11063) ^ALLOW /^^HEADER\\ SWITCH TO
BE SPECIFIED ON SPOOLED FILES.
.PARAGRAPH
1204	^ADD THE NUMBER OF FILES QUEUED TO THE TOTAL MESSAGE
ISSUED FOR OUTPUT SPOOLING.  ^THE MESSAGE NOW READS "TOTAL
OF N BLOCKS IN XYZ REQUEST OF N FILES".
.PARAGRAPH
1205	(^^QAR\\ 1401) ^HANDLE CORRECTLY IN QUEUE LISTINGS THE
CASE THAT THE REQUEST IS BEING PROCESSED BY A JOB RATHER THAN
A SPECIFIC OUTPUT DEVICE.  ^THIS WILL BE INDICATED BY 
GIVING "^^JOB\\ N" IN THE COLUMN LABELLED "DEV".
.PARAGRAPH
1206	^HANDLE REMOTE STATIONS CORRECTLY DURING BATCH
^^KJOB\\ (ERROR IN EDIT 1170).
.PARAGRAPH
1207	^ELIMINATE BUG OF GETTING WRONG LOG FILE PRINTED
(ERROR IN EDIT 1126).
.PARAGRAPH
1210	(^^QAR\\ 1446) ^FIX A SECURITY BUG RELATING
TO USE UNDER ^^JACCT\\.
.PARAGRAPH
1211	^IF ^^KJOB\\ PASSES A LIMIT OF -1, USE THE
DEFAULT COMPUTED INTERNALLY.
.PARAGRAPH
