TYPE.TXT

The utility program "TYPE" will print a file (or files) on the user's
terminal (TI:) by executing the command:

		MCR>TYP filename[,filename,...] [/sw]

Switches are as follows:

	/HElp	- print brief help message

	/TR[:nn] - truncate line to user's terminal width, or nn if
		specified - this switch inhibits wraparound on the terminal

	/-CO	- don't print comment lines in the file (lines starting
		  with "C" for FORTRAN or FLECS files, or ";" for MAC or
		  CMD files)

	/CO	- only print comment lines as defined above

	/HO	- set crt into HOLD-SCREEN mode before starting typeout

	/-TI	- don't print out the title line (filename, date, etc.)

Wildcards are accepted for the UIC, filename, extension, or version.
Also, wildcard characters are allowed, using "?" for any single character
or "*" for a group of characters.  For example, if a directory contains
files ABC.DEF, ABCD.XYZ, and ABDEF.XXX, then the following commands will
operate as shown:

	TYPE *.X?? or *.X*	will type ABC.XYZ and ABDEF.XXX
	TYPE AB???.*		will type ABDEF.XXX
	TYPE AB*.* or *AB*.*	will type all three files
	TYPE ??C*.*		will type ABC.DEF and ABCD.XYZ

Wildcard characters cannot be combined with default extensions as described
below, e.g. "TYPE A*" is illegal, but "TYPE A*.*" is valid.

If no extension is given and wildcard characters are not used, then
TYPE will look for extensions in the following order and output the
first one it finds:

	.FLE , .FTN , .MAC , .CMD , .TXT , .DEF , .ODL , .TES
	.TEC , .PAS , .HLP , .BAS , .RNO , .LST , .MAP , .DAT

If the filename starts with "$", then TYPE will use LB:[201,6] as the
default device and UIC, i.e. ">TYP $MESSAG"  is equivalent to
">TYP LB:[201,6]MESSAG".

The task can be installed as ...TYP to implement the "TYPE" command, or
as ...PRI to implement the "PRINT" command.  When installed as ...PRI,
TYPE will output to CL:.
