Example 3
The
following example shows an invocation
of
AEDIT
-86.
The
main input file and
the
OTHER
input file have the same filename but different filename extensions. The
controls
MACRO
and
MACROSIZE
are also specified. The main filename and the
OTHER
filename can
be
shortened using a hyphen (-), as follows:
~=:-
P~=G.SR>LS~
vIE
...
O~'LV
I"CEATCH
MACRO{FROG.MAC)
MACROS:ZE(1024)
NOTE
If
the
TO
option
is
used and the input file does not exist, then the
"File
does
not
exist" message is displayed following the invocation line, and AEDIT-86
behaves
as
if no input or output values were specified.

Invocation Controls
AEDIT-86
controls can be divided into three groups: file processing mode controls,
recover control, and execution mode controls. Table
4-1
lists the AEDIT-86 invoca-
tion controls. The remainder
of
this chapter explains each control
in
detail.
The
processing mode for an input file uses the
VIEWONL
Y and
FOR
W ARD-
ONLY
controls.
These controls can be specified for either the main input file, for the
OTHER
input file, or both.
VIEWONL
Y and
FOR
W
ARDONL
Y cannot be specified
together for the same file. However, if either of them
is
specified
in
the negative
form, any combination is legal, e.g.,
NOVIEWONLY
FORWARDONLY.
A filename must be given
if
either of these controls
is
specified in the positive
form in the invocation line.
