/BUFFER/CONTINUE/LSE/PROMPT/TPU

/BUFFER

    /BUFFER[=buffer-name]

 Indicates that LSE should read commands from the
 specified buffer and execute the commands or VAXTPU
 program statements within that buffer. The default
 is the current buffer. If you do not specify either
 the /BUFFER qualifier or the /PROMPT qualifier, LSE
 executes the current buffer.

/CONTINUE

    /CONTINUE (D)
    /NOCONTINUE

 Indicates whether LSE prompts for a single string to
 be executed, or for multiple strings to be executed. If
 you specify the /NOCONTINUE qualifier, LSE repeatedly
 prompts for additional commands until you issue a
 CONTINUE command.

 You use the /[NO]CONTINUE qualifier with the /PROMPT
 qualifier; you must not specify the /NOCONTINUE
 qualifier with the /TPU qualifier.

/LSE

    /LSE (D)

 Indicates that the strings are LSE commands.

/PROMPT

    /PROMPT=prompt-string

 Indicates that LSE should prompt you for a command (or
 VAXTPU program statement) to execute.

 The /PROMPT and /BUFFER qualifiers are mutually
 exclusive. If you specify the string parameter, you
 cannot specify the /PROMPT or /BUFFER qualifier. If you
 do not specify the /BUFFER qualifier but specify the
 /PROMPT qualifier, then LSE prompts you for a command
 and does not execute the current buffer.

/TPU

 Indicates that the strings are VAXTPU program
 statements. When specifying the /TPU qualifier, you
 cannot use the /NOCONTINUE qualifier.

Parameter

=TITLE Parameter

string[,...]
 Specifies a list of comma-separated commands or
 statements to be executed. Commands with embedded
 spaces, such as GOTO BUFFER, must be enclosed by double
 quotation marks.
