RU(N) : Runs a jobfile. All commands which may be issued at the terminal
may also be included in a job-file which essentially replaces the user
at the terminal.
The commands in the job file are executed by running the job file.
Before running the job file a syntax check is done. The file is listed
on the terminal and all scans are checked for limit violations. When
checking is complete, execution is started even if errors have been
reported during the check. To interrupt the sequence type CTRL-C twice
(see interruption section II above). If the RUN command is issued alone,
MAD Program asks for a job file name. The default file extension for a
job file is .JOB. The job-file name may also be given on the same line
as the RUN command. Job files can be created as normal OpenVMS files
using one edtir (EDT/TPU/NEDIT).
Nesting : Job files may be nested. That is, a job file may contain any
number of RUN commands. The nesting depth should not exceed 3 however.
See also DO.
e.g. RU MYJOB.HET&lt;CR&gt; commands from file MYJOB.HET
RU MYJOB&lt;CR&gt; commands from file MYJOB.JOB
RUN&lt;CR&gt; gives prompt for job file name
