Type Subsystem Copyright Xerox Corporation 1979 Type.run ( on MAXC ) is a small program for use instead of "type.~" in the executive. It accepts a string of file name(s) in the command line, ie. "type foo foo1 etc". It opens the files and displays their contents "page" at a time. The Bravo formatting information (all characters between Cont Z and the next carrage return) are suppressed. The program recognises the following "global" switches: Type/N Substitutes "N" spaces ( 0 through 9) each time the program encounters a "tab" character. Type/Z Does not supress Bravo format information and displays all characters Type/L Lists the decimal line count as determined by counting carrage return characters. Type/C Lists the octal character count of the first character in the line. The program recognises the following keyboard input: "^" backs up to the last "page" displayed. "ESC" skips to the start of the next file. "DEL" or "^C" returns to the executive. Any other character will display the next "page" of the file. Roger Bates
