Starts the EDIT/3000 subsystem, which is used to create and manipulate ASCII text or program files. (CM)
EDITOR [listfile]
listfile Actual file designator of file to receive any output resulting from EDIT/3000 commands LIST and XPLAIN when the OFFLINE option is specified. It can be any ASCII output file. The formal file designator and default is EDTLIST. If specified with no device parameter, default device is LP.
The formal file designator used in this command (EDTLIST) cannot be backreferenced as an actual file designator in the command parameter list. For further information, refer to the "IMPLICIT FILE COMMANDS FOR SUBSYSTEMS" discussion of the MPE/iX FILE command.
The EDITOR command runs the EDIT/3000 subsystem. This command may be issued from a session or job. It may not be used from a program unless the user or the program have Process Handling (PH) capability. It may not be used from a BREAK. Pressing [Break] suspends the execution of this command. Entering RESUME continues the execution.
To run EDIT/3000 during a session and specify a line printer (device class LP) as the list device for offline output, enter FILE LISTFILE;DEV=LP EDITOR *LISTFILE Because the listfile is often a line printer, it is often defined in an MPE/iX FILE command and backreferenced as in the preceding example.
