AUTO RUN
INTRODUCTION
The automatic program continuation command 'CONT' provides the
user with the facility to continue execution of a program after
HUNTER has been switched off. Power off may have been caused by
execution of the POWER OFF function in Basic, Auto power off or
operation of the power off key.
CGIMAltID SYNTAX
The syntax of the 'CONT' command is as follows:
>CONT filename
where
1
filename' is the name of a file containing a Basic source
program or a CP/M program. The three character file type
extension does not have to be entered if
it is a ,COM file, but
must be included for HUNTER Basic files. For example, if a Basic
program file is called PROG1.HBA, the following command would
load and run the program via the Basic interpreter:
>CONT PROG 1. HBA
and the CP/M program PROGA,COM would be run
if the following was
entered:
>CONT PROGA
If the filename does not have a .COM or .HBA extension, 'CONT'
will default the file type extension to .COM, so if the filename
PROG2.TXT is entered 'CONT' will default the filename to
PROG2.COM.
If it does not exist a 'File not found' error will
occur.
PROGRAM CONTINUATION
At any time during program execution HUNTER may be switched off
by operation of the power key, automatic power off or any other
means
*· The next time HUNTER is switched on the program will
continue execution from the point at which HUNTER was switched
off.
* See 3.8.5.
