Verify Command [V]. Robelle Suprtool 4.6.01, STExport, Suprlink

Use Command [U]

Specifies a file of commands to be executed as a group.

USE[Q] filename

Examples

A usefile makes your task easier by allowing common commands to be specified once in an external file. For example, the following usefile contains all the commands for creating the Invcust file:

$use invuse input invoices {input file to format} floating fixed 2 {formatting option} output invdata {produces the file we want} exit

STExport prints the lines in the usefile, including the comment lines. This allows you to include instructions and reminders in the usefile. In the example above, there were no commands for the user to enter.

Notes

Usefiles cannot be nested in STExport. The usefile may be any unnumbered text file or a Qedit workfile, but no more than 256 characters per record are processed.

By default, STExport displays the commands in a usefile as they are executed.

STExport can execute commands quietly using the Useq command. For compatibility with Qedit, Useq can be abbreviated to UQ.
