XPOST Command

The XPOST top line command returns a panel that lists output network entries from the postprocess queue. The panel that is returned allows you to update the panel information. Perform logging in by entering a function code for the appropriate panel entry and pressing Enter. Also, the XSPOST command displays the same (but abbreviated) information in a two-up format.

This function is available through the QM.7 Output Networks Prompt panel.

This command has the following format:

{XPOST|XSPOST}[,FILL=function]
              [,JOB={*|jobname|jobname*|jobnumber}]
              [,NW={*|network|network*}]
              [,STN={*|station|station*}]
              [,SUBID={*|subid|subid*}]
XPOST

Lists output workstation network entries.

XSPOST

Same as XPOST, but abbreviates and lists twice as many entries on the panel.

FILL

Identifies a character to insert in the function field that precedes each entry on the formatted panel when the panel is initially formatted for display. This value facilitates performing the same function for many networks. For more information about the available values and how they are used, see the QM.7 Output Networks Prompt panel.
