Switches the debugger session from prompt mode to menu mode.

Syntax

►►─── MENu ─┬───────────────┬─────────────────────────────────────────────────►◄
            └─ screen-name ─┘

Parameter

screen-name

Indicates the name of a global help screen or an activity screen to be displayed. If screen-name is not specified, the debugger displays the Usage screen, the top-level global help screen that presents a list of debugger commands and functions.

Usage

The MENU command is executed in prompt mode and switches the debugger session from prompt mode to menu mode. MENU is disabled in menu mode.

In a concatenated list of commands, the debugger ignores any command that follows the MENU command.

Example

This command instructs the debugger to switch from prompt mode to menu mode with the display of the activity screen for the LIST command:

menu list
