#CP
(uppercase
or
lowercase) with the

representing the logical line end symbol currently
defined.
•
At
least one blank must separate the
#CP
from any
command line.

not use attention interruption in
any
part
of the line
or
to enter the line.

the
#CP
command provided that all command lines to be
executed must
be
separated by the current logical line

you enter
#CP
with no operands, the virtual machine
enters the
CP
environment.
Responses:
If
you enter
#CP
without a commandline, you
receive no response.
If
you enter
#CP
with commandlines, you receive the
responses appropriate to the individual commands you
entered.
