     file CINTRO.

Associated Commands

     CONTEXT   Allows you to display and manipulate contexts.

     POP       Allows you to return to a superior context.

Example

     Run a program, for example, MS.  Then exit and  issue  a  CONTEXT
     command to see the status of your current context.

     .CONTEXT

     Contexts used/quota = 1/4, pages used/quota = 4/1000
     Context      Superior   Prog   Idle time
     *        1              MS

     Now issue a PUSH command, and try another CONTEXT command to  see
     the new status of your contexts.

     .PUSH

     .CONTEXT
     Contexts used/quota = 2/4, pages used/quota = 6/1000
     Context      Superior   Prog   Idle Time
              1              MS      19.78
     *        2         1

     There are now two contexts in use.  The current, unnamed  context
     2  is not running a program.  MS, which is running in the unnamed
     superior context, has been idle for 19.78 seconds since the  last
     CONTEXT command was issued.
