The CREATE commands perform the following functions:

   o  Creates a sequential text file or files (see file).

   o  Creates one or more new directories or subdirectories (see
      /DIRECTORY).

   o  Creates a new, empty data file using the specifications of an
      FDL file (see /FDL).

   o  Creates a new logical name table (see /NAME_TABLE).

   o  Creates a window that emulates another terminal type (see
      /TERMINAL).

/DIRECTORY/FDL/NAME_TABLE/TERMINAL

   Creates a sequential text file (or files).

   Format

     CREATE  filespec[,...]

Additional information available:

PARAMETERQUALIFIERSEXAMPLES

filespec[,...]
   Specifies the name of one or more input files to be created.
   Wildcard characters are not allowed. If you omit either the file
   name or the file type, the CREATE command does not supply any
   defaults. The file name or file type is null. If the specified
   file already exists, a new version is created.

Additional information available:

/LOG/OWNER_UIC/PROTECTION/VOLUME

      /LOG
      /NOLOG (default)

   Displays the file specification of each new file created as the
   command executes.

      /OWNER_UIC=uic

   Requires SYSPRV (system privilege) privilege to specify a user
   identification code (UIC) other than your own.

   Specifies the UIC to be associated with the file being created.
   Specify the UIC by using standard UIC format as described in the
   VMS DCL Concepts Manual.

      /PROTECTION=(ownership[:access][,...])

   Specifies protection for the file. Specify the ownership parameter
   as system (S), owner (O), group (G), or world (W) and the access
   parameter as read (R), write (W), execute (E), or delete (D). If
   you do not specify a value for each access category, or if you
   omit the /PROTECTION qualifier, the CREATE command applies the
   following protection for each unspecified category:

   File
   already
   exists?     Protection applied

   Yes         Protection of the existing file

   No          Current default protection

   For more information on specifying protection code, see the VMS
   DCL Concepts Manual.

      /VOLUME=n

   Places the file on the specified relative volume of a multivolume
   set. By default, the file is placed arbitrarily in a multivolume
   set.

   1.  $ CREATE MEET.TXT
       John,
       Residents in the apartment complex will hold their
       annual meeting this evening.  We hope to see you
       there.
       Regards,
       Elwood
<Ctrl/Z>

     The CREATE command in this example creates a text file named
     MEET.TXT in your default directory. The text file MEET.TXT
     contains the lines that follow until the Ctrl/Z.


   2.  $ CREATE A.DAT, B.DAT
       Input line one for A.DAT...
       Input line two for A.DAT...
          .
          .
          .

<Ctrl/Z>

       Input line one for B.DAT...
       Input line two for B.DAT...
          .
          .
          .

<Ctrl/Z>

       $

     After you enter the CREATE command from the terminal, the
     system reads input lines into the sequential file A.DAT until
     Ctrl/Z terminates the first input. The next set of input data
     is placed in the second file, B.DAT. Again, Ctrl/Z terminates
     the input.

   3.  $ FILE = F$SEARCH("MEET.TXT")
       $ IF FILE .EQS. ""
       $ THEN CREATE MEET.TXT
         John,
         Residents in the apartment complex will hold their
         annual meeting this evening.  We hope to see you there.
         Regards,
         Elwood
       $ ELSE TYPE MEET.TXT
       $ ENDIF
       $ EXIT

     In this example, the command procedure searches the default
     disk and directory for the file MEET.TXT. If the command
     procedure determines that the file does not exist it creates
     a file named MEET.TXT using the CREATE command.

   Creates one or more new directories or subdirectories. The
   /DIRECTORY qualifier is required.

   Requires write (W) access to the master file directory (MFD) to
   create a first-level directory. On a system volume, generally only
   users with a system user identification code (UIC) or the SYSPRV
   (system privilege) or BYPASS user privileges have write (W) access
   to the MFD to create a first-level directory.

   Requires write (W) access to the lowest level directory that
   currently exists to create a subdirectory.

   Format

     CREATE/DIRECTORY  directory-spec[,...]

Additional information available:

PARAMETERQUALIFIERSEXAMPLES

directory-spec[,...]
   Specifies the name of one or more directories or subdirectories to
   be created. The directory specification optionally can be preceded
   by a device name (and colon [:]). The default is the current
   default directory. Wildcard characters are not allowed. When you
   create a subdirectory, separate the names of the directory levels
   with periods.

   Note that it is possible to create a series of nested
   subdirectories with a single CREATE/DIRECTORY command. For
   example, [a.b.c] can be created, even though neither [a.b] nor
   [a] exists at the time the command is entered. Each subdirectory
   will be created, starting with the highest level and proceeding
   downward.

Additional information available:

/LOG/OWNER_UIC/PROTECTION/VERSION_LIMIT
/VOLUME

      /LOG
      /NOLOG (default)

   Controls whether the CREATE/DIRECTORY command displays the
   directory specification of each directory after creating it.

      /OWNER_UIC[=option]

   Requires SYSPRV (system privilege) privilege for a user
   identification code (UIC) other than your own.

   Specifies the owner UIC for the directory. The default is your
   UIC. You can specify the keyword PARENT in place of a UIC to mean
   the UIC of the parent (next-higher-level) directory. If a user
   with privileges creates a subdirectory, by default, the owner of
   the subdirectory will be the owner of the parent directory (or the
   owner of the MFD, if creating a main level directory). If you do
   not specifiy the /OWNER_UIC qualifier when creating a directory,
   the command assigns ownership as follows: (1)  if you specify the
   directory name in either alphanumeric or subdirectory format, the
   default is your UIC (unless you are privileged in which case the
   UIC defaults to the parent directory); (2)  if you specify the
   directory in UIC format, the default is the specified UIC.

   Specify the UIC by using standard UIC format as described in the
   VMS DCL Concepts Manual.

      /PROTECTION=(ownership[:access][,...])

   Specifies protection for the directory. Specify the ownership
   poarameter as system (S), owner (O), group (G), or world (W)
   and the access parameter as read (R), write (W), execute (E),
   or delete (D). The default protection is the protection of the
   parent directory (the next-higher level directory, or the master
   directory for top-level directories) minus any delete (D) access.

   If you are creating a first-level directory, then the next-
   higher-level directory is the MFD. (The protection of the MFD
   is established by the INITIALIZE command.)

   For more information on specifying protection code, see the VMS
   DCL Concepts Manual.

      /VERSION_LIMIT=n

   Specifies the number of versions of any one file that can exist
   in the directory. If you exceed the limit, the system deletes the
   lowest numbered version. A specification of 0 means no limit. The
   maximum number of versions allowed is 32,767. The default is the
   limit for the parent (next-higher-level) directory.

   When you change the version limit setting, the new limit applies
   only to files created after the setting was changed. New versions
   of files created before the change are subject to the previous
   version limit.

      /VOLUME=n

   Requests that the directory file be placed on the specified
   relative volume of a multivolume set. By default, the file is
   placed arbitrarily within the multivolume set.

   1.  $ CREATE/DIRECTORY/VERSION_LIMIT=2 $DISK1:[ACCOUNTS.MEMOS]

     In this example, the CREATE/DIRECTORY command creates a
     subdirectory named MEMOS in the ACCOUNTS directory on $DISK1.
     No more than two versions of each file can exist in the
     directory.

   2.  $CREATE/DIRECTORY/PROTECTION=(SYSTEM:RWED,OWNER:RWED,GROUP,WORLD) -
       _$[MALCOLM.SUB.HLP]

     In this example, the CREATE/DIRECTORY command creates a
     subdirectory named [MALCOLM.SUB.HLP]. The protection on the
     subdirectory allows read (R), write (W), execute (E), and
     delete (D) access for the system and owner categories, but
     prohibits all access for the group or world categories.


   3.  $ CREATE/DIRECTORY DISK2:[MALCOLM]

     In this example, the CREATE/DIRECTORY command creates a
     directory named [MALCOLM] on the device DISK2. Special
     privileges are required to create a first-level directory.

   4.  $ CREATE/DIRECTORY [MALCOLM.SUB]
       $ SET DEFAULT [MALCOLM.SUB]

     In this example, the CREATE/DIRECTORY command creates a
     subdirectory named [MALCOLM.SUB]. This directory file is placed
     in the directory named [MALCOLM]. The command SET DEFAULT
     [MALCOLM.SUB] changes the current default directory to this
     subdirectory. All files subsequently created are cataloged in
     [MALCOLM.SUB].


   5.  $ CREATE/DIRECTORY [FRED.SUB1.SUB2.SUB3]

     In this example, the CREATE/DIRECTORY command creates a top-
     level directory ([FRED]) and three subdirectories ([FRED.SUB1],
     [FRED.SUB1.SUB2], and [FRED.SUB1.SUB2.SUB3]).

  Invokes the Create/FDL Utility (CREATE/FDL) to use
  the specifications in an FDL file to create a new, empty data file.
  You use this utility when you want to create a data file
  from a particular FDL specification.  The /FDL qualifier is
  required.  For a complete description of the Create/FDL Utility,
  including more information about the CREATE/FDL command and its
  qualifier, see the VMS File Definition Language Facility Manual.

  Format:


    CREATE/FDL =fdl-file-spec [file-spec]

Additional information available:

ParametersCommand QualifiersExamples

 fdl-file-spec

  Specifies the FDL file used to create the data file.  The default
  file type is FDL.

 file-spec

  Specifies an optional file name for the created file.  If you
  supply a complete file specification, it will override any that may
  be contained in the FDL file.

Additional information available:

/LOG

 /LOG
 /NOLOG

  Controls whether the Create/FDL Utility displays the file
  specification of the data file that it has created.  By default,
  the file specification is displayed.

  1.   $ CREATE/FDL=STDINDEX CUSTDATA.IDX


  Creates an indexed file named CUSTDATA.IDX from an FDL file named
  STDINDEX.FDL.

   Creates a new logical name table. The /NAME_TABLE qualifier is
   required.

   Format

     CREATE/NAME_TABLE  table-name

Additional information available:

PARAMETERQUALIFIERSEXAMPLES

table-name
   Specifies a string of 1 to 31 characters that identifies the
   logical name table you are creating. The string can include
   alphanumeric characters, the dollar sign ($),  and the underscore
   (_).  This name is entered as a logical name in either the process
   directory logical name table (LNM$PROCESS_DIRECTORY) or the system
   directory logical name table (LNM$SYSTEM_DIRECTORY).

Additional information available:

/ATTRIBUTES/EXECUTIVE_MODE/LOG/PARENT_TABLE
/PROTECTION/QUOTA/SUPERVISOR_MODE/USER_MODE

      /ATTRIBUTES[=(keyword[,...])]

   Specifies attributes for the logical name table. If you specify
   only one keyword, you can omit the parentheses. If you do not
   specify the /ATTRIBUTES qualifier, no attributes are set.

   You can specify the following keywords for attributes:

   CONFINE     Does not copy the table name or the logical names
               contained in the table into a spawned subprocess; used
               only when creating a private logical name table. If a
               table is created with the CONFINE attribute, all names
               subsequently entered into the table are also confined.

   NO_ALIAS    No identical names (either logical names or names of
               logical name tables) may be created in an outer (less
               privileged) mode in the current directory. If you do
               not specify the NO_ALIAS attribute, then the table
               may be "aliased" by an identical name created in an
               outer access mode. Deletes any previously created
               identical table names in an outer access mode in the
               same logical name table directory.

   SUPERSEDE   Creates a new table that supersedes any previous
               (existing) table that contains the name, access
               mode, and directory table that you specify. The new
               table is created regardless of whether the previous
               table exists. (If you do not specify the SUPERSEDE
               attribute, the new table is not created if the
               previous table exists.)
               If you specify or accept the default for the qualifier
               /LOG, you receive a message indicating the result.

   Requires SYSNAM (system logical name) privilege.

   Creates an executive-mode logical name table. If you specify
   executive mode, but do not have SYSNAM privilege, a supervisor-
   mode logical name table is created.

      /LOG (default)
      /NOLOG

   Controls whether an informational message is generated when the
   SUPERSEDE attribute is specified, or when the table already exists
   but the SUPERSEDE attribute is not specified. The default is the
   /LOG qualifier; that is, the informational message is displayed.

      /PARENT_TABLE=table

   Requires execute (E) access to the parent table and SYSPRV (system
   privilege) privilege to create a shareable logical name table.

   Specifies the name of the parent table. The parent table
   determines whether a table is private or shareable; it also
   determines the size quota of the table. If you do not specify
   a parent table, the default table is LNM$PROCESS_DIRECTORY. A
   shareable table has LNM$SYSTEM_DIRECTORY as its parent table.
   The parent table must have the same access mode or a higher level
   access mode than the one you are creating.

      /PROTECTION=(ownership[:access][,...])

   Applies the specified protection to shareable name tables. Specify
   the ownership parameter as system (S), owner (O), group (G), or
   world (W) and the access parameter as read (R), write (W), execute
   (E), or delete (D). The default protection is (S:RWED, O:RWED, G:,
   W:)

   For more information on specifying protection code, see the VMS
   DCL Concepts Manual.

   The /PROTECTION qualifier affects only shareable logical name
   tables; it does not affect process-private logical name tables.

      /QUOTA=number-of-bytes

   Specifies the size limit of the logical name table. The size of
   each logical name entered in the new table is deducted from this
   size limit. The new table's quota is statically subtracted from
   the parent table's quota holder. The parent table's quota holder
   is the first logical name table encountered when working upward in
   the table hierarchy that has an explicit quota and is therefore
   its own quota holder. If the /QUOTA qualifier is not specified or
   the size limit is 0, the parent table's quota holder becomes the
   new table's quota holder and space is dynamically withdrawn from
   it whenever a logical name is entered in this new table. If you do
   not specify the /QUOTA qualifier, or if you specify /QUOTA=0, the
   table has unlimited quota.

      /SUPERVISOR_MODE (default)

   Creates a supervisor-mode logical name table. If you do not
   specify a mode, a supervisor-mode logical name table is created.

   Creates a user-mode logical name table. If you do not explicitly
   specify a mode, a supervisor-mode logical name table is created.

   1.  $ CREATE/NAME_TABLE TEST_TAB
       $ SHOW LOGICAL TEST_TAB
       %SHOW-S-NOTRAN, no translation for logical name TEST_TAB
       $ SHOW LOGICAL/TABLE=LNM$PROCESS_DIRECTORY TEST_TAB

     In this example, the CREATE/NAME_TABLE command creates a new
     table called TEST_TAB. By default, the name of the table
     is entered in the process directory. The first SHOW LOGICAL
     command does not find the name TEST_TAB because it does not,
     by default, search the process directory table. You must use
     the /TABLE qualifier to request that the process directory be
     searched.

   2.  $ CREATE/NAME_TABLE/ATTRIBUTES=CONFINE EXTRA
       $ DEFINE/TABLE=EXTRA MYDISK DISK4:
       $ DEFINE/TABLE=LNM$PROCESS_DIRECTORY LNM$FILE_DEV -
       _$ EXTRA, LNM$PROCESS, LNM$JOB, LNM$GROUP, LNM$SYSTEM
       $ TYPE MYDISK:[COHEN]EXAMPLE1.LIS

     This example creates a new logical name table called EXTRA
     that is created with the CONFINE attribute. Therefore, the
     EXTRA table and the names it contains will not be copied to
     subprocesses.

     Next, the logical name MYDISK is placed into the table EXTRA.
     To use the name MYDISK in file specifications, you must make
     sure that the table EXTRA is searched when RMS parses file
     specifications. To do this, you can define a process-private
     version of the logical name LNM$FILE_DEV to include the name
     EXTRA as one of its equivalence strings. (The system uses
     LNM$FILE_DEV to determine the tables to search during logical
     name translation for device or file specifications, and will
     use the process-private version of the logical name before
     using the default system version.) After you define LNM$FILE_
     DEV, the system searches the following tables during logical
     name translation: EXTRA, your process table, your job table,
     your group table, and the system table. Now, you can use the
     name MYDISK in a file specification and the equivalence string
     DISK4 will be substituted.

   The DCL command CREATE/TERMINAL creates a window that emulates
   another terminal type.

                                  NOTE

      At present, only DECterm windows are available with this
      command.

   Format

     CREATE/TERMINAL  [command-string]

Additional information available:

PARAMETERQUALIFIERS

Example

command-string
   Specifies a command string that is to be executed in the context
   of the created subprocess. You cannot specify this parameter with
   the /DETACH or /NOPROCESS qualifiers. The CREATE/TERMINAL command
   is used in much the same way as the SPAWN command.

Additional information available:

/APPLICATION_KEYPAD/BIG_FONT/BROADCAST
/CARRIAGE_CONTROL/CLI/CONTROLLER/DEFINE_LOGICAL
/DETACH/DISPLAY/ESCAPE/FALLBACK/HOSTSYNC
/INPUT/INSERT/KEYPAD/LINE_EDITING/LITTLE_FONT
/LOGGED_IN/LOGICAL_NAMES/NOTIFY/NUMERIC_KEYPAD
/OVERSTRIKE/PASTHRU/PROCESS/PROMPT/READSYNC
/RESOURCE_FILE/SYMBOLS/TABLE/TTSYNC/TYPE_AHEAD
/WAIT/WINDOW_ATTRIBUTES

   Sets the APPLICATION_KEYPAD terminal characteristic in the created
   terminal window. If /APPLICATION_KEYPAD or /NUMERIC_KEYPAD is not
   specified, the default is to inherit the characteristic from the
   parent. (See also /NUMERIC_KEYPAD.)

   Specifies that the big font (as specified in resource files) be
   selected when the created terminal window is initialized. It is an
   error to specify the /BIG_FONT qualifier in combination with the
   /LITTLE_FONT qualifier. If you do not specify either the /BIG_FONT
   or the /LITTLE_FONT qualifier, the initial font is the big font.

      /BROADCAST
      /NOBROADCAST

   Determines whether the terminal window is created with broadcast
   messages enabled. If neither qualifier is specified, the created
   terminal window inherits the broadcast characteristic of the
   parent.

      /CARRIAGE_CONTROL
      /NOCARRIAGE_CONTROL

   Determines whether carriage-return and line-feed characters are
   prefixed to the subprocess's prompt string. By default, CREATE
   /TERMINAL copies the current setting of the parent process. This
   qualifier is used only with the /NODETACH qualifier.

      /CLI=cli-file-spec
      /NOCLI

   Specifies the name of a command language interpreter (CLI) to be
   used by the subprocess. The default CLI is the same as that of
   the parent process (defined in SYSUAF). If you specify the /CLI
   qualifier, the attributes of the parent process are copied to
   the subprocess. The CLI you specify must be located in SYS$SYSTEM
   and have the file type EXE. This qualifier is used only with the
   /NODETACH qualifier.

      /CONTROLLER=filespec

   Specifies the name of the terminal window controller image.
   This name allows the CREATE/TERMINAL command to create a window
   on a variant controller, such as for a language not supported
   by the base product. For a DECterm window, the default is
   SYS$SYSTEM:DECW$TERMINAL.EXE. The device and directory default
   to SYS$SYSTEM and the file type defaults to EXE.

                                  NOTE

      The "name" field of the file name as returned by $PARSE
      is used to form the mailbox logical name. For example,
      if the file "name" is DECW$TERMINAL, the mailbox logical
      name will be DECW$TERMINAL_MAILBOX_node::0.0. For backward
      compatibility, the controller also defines a logical name
      DECW$DECTERM_MAILBOX_host::0.0 to point to the same mailbox.

      /DEFINE_LOGICAL=({logname, TABLE=tablename} [,...])

   Specifies one or more logical names that are set to the name of
   the created pseudo-terminal device. Each element in the list is
   either a logical name or else TABLE= followed by the name of a
   logical name table in which all subsequent logical names will be
   entered. The default is the process logical name table.

      /DETACH
      /NODETACH (default)

   Determines whether the created terminal process is detached or a
   subprocess of the current process. The command-string parameter
   can not be used with the /DETACH qualifier.

      /DISPLAY=display-name

   Specifies the name of the display on which to create the terminal
   window. If this parameter is omitted, the DECW$DISPLAY logical
   name is used.

      /ESCAPE
      /NOESCAPE

   Sets or clears the ESCAPE characteristic of the created terminal
   window. The default is to inherit the characteristic of the
   parent.

      /FALLBACK
      /NOFALLBACK

   Sets or clears the FALLBACK characteristic of the created terminal
   window. The default is to inherit the characteristic of the
   parent.

      /HOSTSYNC (default)
      /NOHOSTSYNC

   Sets or clears the HOSTSYNC characteristic of the created terminal
   window. The default is to inherit the characteristic of the
   parent.

      /INPUT=filespec

   Specifies an alternate input file or device to use as SYS$INPUT
   for the new process. The default is to use the created terminal
   window for input. This qualifier can be used with or without the
   /DETACH qualifier.

   Creates the terminal window with insert mode as the default for
   line editing. If the /INSERT or the /OVERSTRIKE qualifier is not
   specified, the default is to inherit the characteristic from the
   parent. (See also /OVERSTRIKE.)

      /KEYPAD (default)
      /NOKEYPAD

   Determines whether keypad definitions and the current keypad state
   are copied from the parent process. This qualifier is used only
   with the /NODETACH qualifier.

      /LINE_EDITING
      /NOLINE_EDITING

   Determines whether the terminal window is created with line
   editing enabled. If neither qualifier is specified, the created
   terminal window inherits the line editing characteristic of the
   parent.

   Specifies that the little font (as specified in resource files)
   be selected when the created terminal window is initialized. It
   is an error to specify the /LITTLE_FONT qualifier in combination
   with the /BIG_FONT qualifier. If you do not specify either the
   /BIG_FONT or the /LITTLE_FONT qualifier, the initial font is the
   big font.

      /LOGGED_IN (default)
      /NOLOGGED_IN

   Determines whether a prompt for a user name and password are
   supplied (/NOLOGGED_IN) or the created terminal window is logged
   in automatically (/LOGGED_IN). This qualifier is used only with
   the /DETACH qualifier.

      /LOGICAL_NAMES (default)
      /NOLOGICAL_NAMES

   Determines whether the created terminal window inherits the
   parent's logical names. This qualifier is used only with the
   /NODETACH qualifier.

      /NOTIFY
      /NONOTIFY (default)

   Determines whether a notification message is broadcast to the
   parent when the created terminal window exits. This qualifier is
   used only with the /NODETACH qualifier.

   Sets the NUMERIC_KEYPAD terminal characteristic in the created
   terminal window. If the /NUMERIC_KEYPAD or the /APPLICATION_
   KEYPAD qualifier is not specified, the default is to inherit the
   characteristic from the parent. (See also /APPLICATION_KEYPAD.)

   Creates the terminal window with overstrike mode as the default
   for line editing. If the /OVERSTRIKE or the /INSERT qualifier is
   not specified, the default is to inherit the characteristic from
   the parent. (See also /INSERT.)

      /PASTHRU
      /NOPASTHRU

   Sets or clears the PASTHRU characteristic in the created terminal
   window. The default is to inherit the characteristic of the
   parent.

      /PROCESS (default)
      /PROCESS=process-name
      /NOPROCESS

   Specifies the name of the process or subprocess to be created.
   The /NOPROCESS qualifier causes a window to be created without a
   process. If you specify the /PROCESS qualifier without a process
   name, a unique process name is assigned with the same base name as
   the parent process and a unique number. The default process name
   format is: username_n. If you specify a process name that already
   exists, an error message is displayed. This qualifier is used with
   either the /DETACH or the /NODETACH qualifier.

      /PROMPT=prompt

   Specifies the prompt string of the created terminal window. This
   qualifier is used only with the /NODETACH qualifier.

      /READSYNC
      /NOREADSYNC

   Sets or clears the READSYNC terminal characteristic in the created
   terminal window. The default is to inherit the characteristic from
   the parent.

      /RESOURCE_FILE=filespec

   Specifies that the created terminal window use the resource
   file "filespec" instead of the default resource file, DECW$USER_
   DEFAULTS:DECW$TERMINAL_DEFAULT.DAT.

      /SYMBOLS (default)
      /NOSYMBOLS

   Determines whether the subprocess inherits the parent's DCL
   symbols. This qualifier is used only with the /NODETACH qualifier.

      /TABLE=command-table

   Specifies the name of an alternate command table to be used by
   the subprocess. This qualifier is used only with the /NODETACH
   qualifier.

      /TTSYNC
      /NOTTSYNC

   Sets or clears the TTSYNC terminal characteristic in the created
   terminal window; the default is to inherit the characteristic of
   the parent.

      /TYPE_AHEAD
      /NOTYPE_AHEAD

   Sets or clears the TYPE_AHEAD terminal characteristic in
   the created terminal window. The default is to inherit the
   characteristic of the parent.

      /WAIT
      /NOWAIT (default)

   Requires that you wait for the subprocess to terminate before you
   enter another DCL command. The /NOWAIT qualifier allows you to
   enter new commands while the subprocess is running. This qualifier
   is used only with the /NODETACH qualifier.

      /WINDOW_ATTRIBUTES=(parameter [,...])

   Specifies initial attributes for the created terminal window
   to override the defaults read from the resource file. These
   parameters include:

   Parameter     Description

   BACKGROUND    The background color.

   FOREGROUND    The foreground color.

   WIDTH         The width, in pixels.

   HEIGHT        The height, in pixels.

   X_POSITION    The x-position, in pixels.

   Y_POSITION    The y-position, in pixels.

   ROWS          The number of rows in the window, in character
                 cells. If the Auto Resize Window option is enabled,
                 the ROWS and COLUMNS parameters override the size
                 specified by the WIDTH and HEIGHT parameters.

   COLUMNS       The number of columns in the window, in character
                 cells. If the Auto Resize Window option is enabled,
                 the ROWS and COLUMNS parameters override the size
                 specified by the WIDTH and HEIGHT parameters.

   INITIAL_      The initial state of the window, either ICON or
   STATE         WINDOW.

   TITLE         A character string specifying the window title.

   ICON_NAME     A character string specifying the window icon name.

   FONT          The name of the font to be used in the window. If
                 you specify the /LITTLE_FONT qualifier, or omit
                 both the /LITTLE_FONT and /BIG_FONT qualifiers, this
                 overrides the name of the little font that is set
                 in the resource files; otherwise it overrides the
                 name of the big font. The font name can be a logical
                 name, and it can be (but does not have to be) the
                 base font in a complete font set.

   $ CREATE/TERMINAL=DECTERM -
   _$/DISPLAY=MYNODE::0 -
   _$/WINDOW_ATTRIBUTES=( -
   _$ROWS=36, -
   _$COLUMNS=80, -
   _$TITLE="REMOTE TERMINAL", -
   _$ICON_NAME="REMOTE TERMINAL" )

     In this example, the command creates a detached process in a
     DECterm window on node MYNODE:: that is 36 rows by 80 columns
     and has its title and icon name set to "Remote terminal".
