| C | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| CLEARFILE | Deletes all the records in a table's data section or dict section. | |
| CRT | Manages output to terminals. | |
| D | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| DELETE | There are two delete commands. Both are explained here. | |
| DELETELIST | Removes a record from the &SAVESLISTS& table. | |
| DELETEU | This command acquires an update lock before deleting the record. | |
| DISPLAY | Manages output to terminals. | |
| E | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| ECHO | Controls whether or not output to terminal (standard out) is suppressed. | |
| EOF | Determines if you are at the end of the command line parameters. | |
| ERRMSG | Formats errors using the ERRMSG data. | |
| F | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| FILELOCK | Locks an entire table. | |
| FILEUNLOCK | Releases a FILELOCK. | |
| FLUSH | Used with OPENSEQ to make sure all writes have completed. | |
| G | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| GET | Gets a command line argument | |
| I | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| INPUT | Used to receive input from the default input device, which is usually a keyboard, but could be a scanner, or even another computer. | |
| INPUTCLEAR | Clears the type-ahead buffer (any characters already in the pipeline). | |
| INPUTDISP | This is not really a part of the INPUT family. Use CRT instead. | |
| INPUTDP | This is the NLS safe version of the INPUT command. | |
| INPUTERR | This is not really part of the INPUT family. INPUTERR writes a formated error message to the last line of teh termional, as defined by the TERM startment. | |
| INPUTIF | Allows several things to be mashed into a single, poorly thought out command. Use INPUT instead and increase readability. | |
| INPUTNULL | Defines any single character, that when input by itself should be converted into a null. | |
| INPUTTRAP | Selects a GOSUB branch based on the position of the entered character. | |
| L | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| LOCK | Allow for the locking of non-table related resources. | |
| M | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| MATREAD | Identical to READ except that the receiving dynamic array is replaced by a receiving dimensioned array. | |
| MATREADU | Identical to READU except that the receiving dynamic array is replaced by a receiving dimensioned array. | |
| MATWRITE | Identical to WRITE except that the receiving dynamic array is replaced by a receiving dimensioned array. | |
| MATWRITEU | Identical to WRITEU except that the receiving dynamic array is replaced by a receiving dimensioned array. | |
| O | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| ON | Use ON as part of the GOSUB command or as part of the WRITE command. | |
| P | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| PAGE | Forces output to advance to a new page, first triggering a footer, if any, then paging, then triggering a header if any. | |
| Manages output to terminals or printers. | ||
| PROCREAD | Reads the primary input buffer from the calling PROC. | |
| PROCWRITE | Updates the input buffer of the calling PROC. | |
| PROMPT | Changes the single character used by the INPUT family of commands. | |
| R | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| READ | Retrieves a record from the file and based on the record id | |
| READBLK | ||
| READLIST | ||
| READNEXT | Gets a value (typically an ID) from a select list, then moves the pointer forward to the next value. | |
| READSEQ | ||
| READT | ||
| READU | Retrieves a record from the file and based on the record id and sets an update lock | |
| READV | Retrieves a field from a record from the file and based on the record id | |
| READVU | Retrieves a field from record from the file and based on the record id and sets an update lock | |
| RECORDLOCKED | ||
| RECORDLOCKL | ||
| RECORDLOCKU | ||
| S | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| SEEK | Similar to GET(ARG.), SET(ARG.) also auto-advances the pointer to the next element. | |
| U | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| UNLOCK | Release a resource lock. | |
| W | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| WEOF | W(rite) E(nd) O(f) F(ile) marker on a tape. | |
| WEOFSEQ | W(rite) E(nd) O(f) F(ile) marker on a sequential file. | |
| WRITE | Writes record back to a database table. | |
| WRITEBLK | ||
| WRITELIST | ||
| WRITESEQ | ||
| WRITESEQF | ||
| WRITET | Writes data to a tape device.Contributed by Russ Watson | |
| WRITEU | Writes data back to the database. | |
| WRITEV | Writes one field back to a database table. | |
| WRITEVU | Writes field back to a database table. | |
| Symbol | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| @ | Used in managing cursor positioning on terminals. | |
| Code | Index: C D E F G I L M O P R S U W Symbol Code | |
| COMMANDLINE | Example of EOF and GET argument handlers | |
| CURSOR | Cursor managment example. | |
