Rename
The RENAME command changes the file name and/or extension of an existing file.
The original (source) and a new (destination) file specification are required as parameters. It is possible to
use the asterisk for extensions. If no device is specified for the original file, the default device is used. Differ
-
ent devices cannot be specified for the source and destination files.
If the new file exists already, before the original file is renamed a prompt for confirmation will be displayed.
Renaming a programme file (.COD or .BKC) will not be allowed if the new name is already referenced inside
the file. This type of error is only detected when the programme is loaded.
Both system and memory protection must be off for use of this command.
Options: /Confirm prompts for confirmation before each file is renamed.
/Overwrite overwrites existing files without prompting for confirmation.
Syntax: FR <source_file> <dest_file>
Translate
The TRANSLATE command converts a source code file (.PDL) into a runnable code file (.COD).
The source code file name is required. It is possible to use the asterisk. The only device that can be specified
is RD:. If no file extension is specified, the extension will be .PDL.
If the .COD file already exists, the extension is changed to .BKC before creating the new .COD file.
If warnings or errors are detected during translation, they are displayed in the scroll window and logged in a
file called TRANS.ERR.
Both system and memory protection must be off for use of this command.
Options: /Back converts a .COD file into a .PDL file. It is the same as the Filer Print command of
a
.COD to a .PDL file.
/Confirm prompts for confirmation before converting each file.
/List produces a listing (.LIS) file and can only be used in conjunction with the /BACK option.
/Variables converts a .LSV ASCII file of variables into a .VAR file. It is used with
the
/BACK option to convert a .VAR file of variables into the corresponding .LSV file in
ASCII format.
Syntax: FT <file_name>
