Running TFORM

You run the TFORM program from your command interpreter prompt. To
do this, you use an implied RUN command. “Implied” means you don’t
actually need to enter RUN before the program name; instead, you simply
enter TFORM. The command consists of three parts:

The TFORM command entered after the command interpreter prompt

The word IN followed by the name of the file

The word OUT followed by the output device (the location you want to
send the output)

You separate the IN information from the OUT information by a comma.
The entire section is enclosed in slashes.

For example, suppose the name of your edit file is MEMO1 and the name of
your output device is $S.#PUBS. Your command looks like this:

1> TFORM /IN MEMO1, OUT $S.#PUBS/

Name of program

RUN is implied.

IN precedes the

input file name.

The input and

output portions are

enclosed in slashes.

OUT precedes the

output device name.

A comma separates the

IN and OUT sections.

Note

The RUN command has several options, such as NOWAIT and HOLD, that can be useful
when you’re printing with TFORM. See the GUARDIAN 90 Operating System Utilities
Reference Manual
for a complete description of the RUN command.
