RE: Re: SixPack : CP TERM MORE command broken / not functional ?

I believe that "Invalid Operand" is the message issued by the SYSTEM
 
INVALID COMAND and COMMAND NOT RECOGNIZED are both issued by the APPLICATION
at differnt points. :-)
 
However - I apologize -
 
But I do suggest that this a moot issue as far as the application is
concerned - which is what strted this chain.
 
The console is used by the application and cannot be used as a console in
any way other than what is programmed in the application.
Unless you get into CP mode and do a logoff - 
 
In any case any manipulation of the console will stop the applciation as
explained in the directions,
 
The multi tasking environment gives the console special priorites  to handle
CMS commands from the app.
It traps all the interupts to the console and you cannot get to CMS other
than thru the application while the application is running.
 
If you go into CP you will very quickly cause the application to stop. 
If the console casues an attention interrupt the application stops
The console is the ony graphic device that forces the application to be
single thread.
 
For this application it is best to leave the console disconnected - all
commands can be executed from the application via the CMS interface.
 
Certain commands of course will kill the application. but you can play
around with that if you want by changing the external EXEC GCOMD
to allow other commands thru
 
There are no informrative messages on the console once the application
starts other than debugging items.
If there is a need for a control interface we can program it in FUll screen
- The only command currently recognized is EOJ
Keeping the console open is effectively pressing STOP for this application.
 
Do not be mislead by the Multi-tasing environment - The console as in any
other application runing under CMS belongs to the Application while it is
running

Roc,

Sorry, *you* are the one confused here ;)

I issued the TERM MORE 1 command from a CMS PROMPT before I even
started up GCIC.
