Defaults that can be set for an individual session

Finally, each CA Ideal user can set most of the defaults that can be set for the site for an individual session, using SET commands or session options fill-ins. (See the Working in the Environment Guide for a description of the SET commands and the session options fill-ins. See the Command Reference Guide for the complete syntax of the SET command.)

A default set with a SET command or session options fill-in is changed only for the user who issued the command. It remains in effect only for the current session. The user has the option of storing SET commands in a member called SIGNON. This executes the commands automatically each time the user signs on, and works as if that user's default settings were changed permanently.

For references to defaults in this document, see whatever default is currently in effect for any given option. The actual default for any given option, for any given user, in any given session, at any given site, depends on what choices for setting defaults were made.

You can display or print the default option settings for the current session using the following commands:

DISPLAY SESSION OPTIONS
PRINT SESSION OPTIONS

For a list and descriptions of all of the session options available under CA Ideal, see the Working in the Environment Guide.
