ECHO Command

Use the ECHO command to preserve the primary command line. If ECHO is turned on, the last command entered on the command line is preserved and redisplayed. If ECHO is turned off, the last command entered is not preserved. The ECHO setting is maintained in the Editor profile for the signed on CA IDMS/DC user id. The PROFILE command can be used to display all environmental settings, which will include the ECHO setting. The syntax for the ECHO command is the following:

ECHO {ON|OFF}

Default: OFF

This command is available in edit and browse modes.
