SL Save current file list

SL [mn] Save List. The current file list is saved to a file.

mn is a 1 to 8 letter mnemonic code. Entering RL mn - entered as a command (see above), or in the 'FILENAME-SELECT' field of the Selection mask - will display this saved file list again.

The name of the save file is #CFS.SAVELIST., with the mnemonic code given in the SL command being appended as a suffix. The fixed portion of the file name, #CFS.SAVELIST., can be redefined by the systems administrator.

It can be seen from the above that the file lists saved with the SL ... command are temporary files, and will be erased by BS2000 at the end of the process.

If the file lists saved with SL are to be used again after LOGOFF for some other purpose, then the system administrator should change the prefix from #CFS.SAVE LIST. to CFS.SAVELIST. during CFS installation.

If no mnemonic code is specified with the SL command, then the Job name of the user process is used. If there is no Job name, then the TSN is used as the default. The same is true for the RL command (Restore List).

The SL command has the identical function to the DOCUMENTATION field in the CFS Selection mask. Some additional options can be specified in the DOCUMENTATION field.
