EVE SAVE_SYSTEM_ATTRIBUTES — VMS 5.4

 SAVE SYSTEM ATTRIBUTES

 Saves EVE's default attributes and menu definitions sessions by creating a
 section file or by creating or updating a command file.

 This is useful if you set attributes or otherwise customized EVE and want
 to restore standard EVE settings---for example, to have a standard EVE
 section file or command file.

 Usage notes:

 o  The following table shows the effects on SAVE SYSTEM ATTRIBUTES
    depending on whether you set a default section file and whether section
    file prompting is enabled or disabled:

    Settings                        Effects with SAVE SYSTEM ATTRIBUTES
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    SET DEFAULT SECTION FILE        Saves in your default section file
    SET NOSECTION FILE PROMPTING    without any further prompting.

    SET DEFAULT SECTION FILE        Asks whether to save in a section
    SET SECTION FILE PROMPTING      file.  If you respond Yes, EVE then
                                    saves in your default section file.

    SET NODEFAULT SECTION FILE      Asks whether to save in a command
    SET NOSECTION FILE PROMPTING    file (.TPU) without prompting for
                                    saving in a section file.

    SET NODEFAULT SECTION FILE      (Defaults.)  Asks whether to save in a
    SET SECTION FILE PROMPTING      section file.  If you respond Yes, EVE
                                    asks for the name of the section file.

 o  SAVE SYSTEM ATTRIBUTES does not change the settings currently in effect
    for the editing session.  For example, it does not restore EVE default
    settings, such as free cursor or invisible tabs.

 o  For a list of the EVE default settings, see help on Defaults.
