KDO Keep Display Options

KDO | NKDO Keep Display Options/do Not Keep Display Options.

Normally (NKDO), all Display options are reset to their standard values when the Display mode is terminated, or when switching the display to another file.

The KDO command has the effect of retaining the current values of the following parameters, and these are automatically activated for the display of the next file:

Cnn first column to be displayed

DL/DS Display Long/Display Short

H/NH Hexadecimal/Character representation

N/NN Display/suppress record numbers

SR/NSR Single Record display

Standard: NKDO.

Note:

The required Display options can be set when starting CFS with the help of a Startup file (see Chapter 20), and can be retained for the current CFS job. The Startup file could, for example, contain the following:

*002 FILE=NO
DL
N
KDO
*DIA

The Display options retained with the KDO command remain valid until CFS is terminated.
