PN (PAD_NAME) *DM* -- Save transcript pad in named file.
usage: pn pathname


FORMAT

  PN pathname


  The PN command names a transcript pad and makes it permanent.
  That is, the pad is stored in a file and remains on the system
  after all windows to it are deleted.  The file remains in use and
  locked, however, until the process is stopped and all windows are
  closed.  If you do not use the PN command, transcript pads are
  deleted when all windows to them are deleted.

  The PN command can also be used to change the name of an edit pad.


ARGUMENTS

  pathname
  (required)       Specify the pathname where the DM saves the pad.
                   The pathname must be cataloged in a directory on
                   your node (i.e., you cannot save a file on your
                   node if the file name is cataloged on some other
                   node).
