Privilege Class: G

Purpose

Use TERMINAL LINEND to define the logical line-end symbol for your virtual machine.

Operands

ON
OFf
char
controls logical line-end symbol definition. If you specify ON, the system default symbol becomes the logical-line end symbol for your virtual machine. If you specify OFF, no logical line end symbol is allowed for your virtual machine.

If you specify char, that character becomes the logical line-end character. The character you select should be unique and not common to the data stream you are entering.

Usage Notes

  1. When you first log on, LINEND is set to the system default symbol. The system default symbol is a pound sign (#) unless changed in the system configuration file by the system operator. You can override the default by specifying a different setting in your directory entry. Reconnecting does not affect the LINEND setting.
