/BUFFER

/BUFFER

      /BUFFER=buffer-name

   Specifies a buffer into which the file is to be read. If the
   buffer does not exist, it is created for display only (the buffer
   cannot be written back to a file).

Parameter

file-spec
   Specifies the file to be read. LSE uses the list for the current
   SET SOURCE_DIRECTORY command to resolve the file specification.

   LSE uses VAX DEC/CMS to access a file if the directory for the
   file to be accessed is the same as the current CMS library.
