WTOH Command

The WTOH command displays a text string in the action message area of the Merged Messages window and in the Action Message Recall window.

By using the WTOH command to send messages to the Action Message Recall window or the Merged Messages window, you can alert operators to problems with REXX processing.

This command has the following format:

"WTOH 'text'"
text

Specifies the text (up to 128 characters) to be displayed. The text must be enclosed in single quotation marks ('); if the text contains embedded single quotes, use one of the alternate delimiters described in the section ADDRESS AXC Command Syntax in this chapter.

Example:

Suppose that the session name VM10 identifies a VM session on your system and you want to notify the operator when a severe error occurs in that session. To do so, place this statement in a REXX program:

"WTOH 'REXX detects severe error in session VM10'"
