Use a Script

This example calls cawto from within a script:

//EXPAND   EXEC PGM=BPXBATCH,REGION=0M,                        
// PARM='PGM /cai/nsmem/bin/myscript Hi from a script file'               
//STDOUT   DD  PATH='/cai/nsmem/RW/batch.out',                    
//         PATHOPTS=(OWRONLY,OCREAT,OTRUNC),                   
//         PATHMODE=(SIRUSR,SIWUSR,SIRGRP,SIWGRP,SIROTH)       
//STDERR   DD  PATH='/cai/nsmem/RW/batch.err',                    
//         PATHOPTS=(OWRONLY,OCREAT,OTRUNC),                   
//         PATHMODE=(SIRUSR,SIWUSR,SIRGRP,SIWGRP,SIROTH)       
//STDENV   DD  PATH='/cai/nsmem/RW/ENVFILE',        
//            PATHOPTS=(ORDONLY)                               
/*                                                             
//*

The file myscript can do the following action:

#Change to our directory
cd /cai/nsmem                                                               
# Set the environment variables
. PROFILE                                
#  Take the parm passed as the message to be sent
cawto  $1                                                  
# Send a copy of the command to the console
