Using Line Commands

Line commands can be used to scroll through, insert, copy, move, and delete lines in repeating groups on panels. These commands are not related to the online work queue commands which are called margin commands. For more information about these commands, see Using the Online Work Queue. The numerical factor described with the following commands can be either left or right of the command depending on the site option selected.

For example, to insert three lines, enter either I3 or 3I depending on the value for the LCREP= parameter in the System Resource Table. This applies to the Delete, Insert, Move, Repeat, and Copy commands.

You can use the following line commands on Security Maintenance panels:

Command	Action
*	Scroll the display until this line is at the top of the panel.
+nnn*	Scroll the display until the line that is nnn lines after this line is at the top of the panel.
-nnn*	Scroll the display until the line that is nnn lines before this line is at the top of the panel.
A	Designate the location after which lines are to be copied or moved.
B	Designate the location before which lines are to be copied or move.
C	Copy a line. Use A or B to designate the location where the line is to be copied.
CC	Copy a block of lines. CC must be entered on the first line and the last line of the block. Use A or B to designate the location where the block is to be copied.
D	Delete a line.
DB	Delete all lines from this line through the bottom line.
DD	Delete a block of lines. DD must be entered on the first line and the last line of the block.
DT	Delete all lines from this line through the top line.
IB	Inserts a blank line before the first line.
I or In	Insert lines. If used alone, only one unnumbered line is inserted into the panel after the line where the command is entered. If used with n, n number of unnumbered lines are inserted into panel after the line where the command is entered.
R or Rn	Repeat lines. If used alone, only one line is repeated after the line where the command is entered. If used with n, the line where the command is entered is repeated n times after itself.
RR	Repeat a block of lines. RR must be entered on the first line and the last line of the block. The lines are repeated after the line of the designated block.
