Browse primary commands

You can prefix any BROWSE command with an ampersand to keep the command displayed on the command line after the command has been processed. This technique allows you to repeat similar commands without reentering the data. For example, if you enter:

Command ===> &FIND ABCD

the command is displayed after the string has been found, which allows you to then change the operand and issue another FIND command.

Browse provides the functions described in these topics, each of which is controlled by a command that you can type on the command line:

BROWSE—browse recursively
COLUMNS—identify columns
DISPLAY—control the display
EDIT—edit a member
FIND—find character strings
HEX—display data in hexadecimal format
LOCATE—locate lines
RESET—remove the column-identification line
SUBMIT—submit a job stream for background execution
VIEW—view a member
