Terminal

User's

Guide

(Release

21.7)

Introduction

TSO

is

the

time

sharing

option

of

the

IBM

System/360

Operating

system.

TSO

le~

you

use

the

facilities

of

a

computer

at

a

terminal.

A

terminal

is

a

typewriter-like

device

connected

through

telephone

or

other

communication

lines

to

the

computer.

A

terminal

can

be

at

any

distance

from

the

computer

--

in

the

same

room

or

in

another

city.

Because

the

system

processes

instructions

much

faster

than

you

can

enter

them

through

the

terminal,

it

can

process

input

from

many

terminals

at

the

same

time

it

is

processing

work

entered

in

the

conventional

manner

in

the

computer

room.

HoweverI

due

to

the

speed

of

the

system,·

you

will

be

able

to

work

as

though

you

had

almost

exclusive

use

of

the

system.

You

can

tell

the

system

what

work

you

want

done

by

typing

in

one

or

more

of

the

commands

that

form

the

TSO

command

language..

The command

language

can

be

used

to:

•

Enter",

store,

modify,

and

retrieve

data

at

the

terminal.

•

Solve

mathematical

problems.

•

Develop

programs

written

in

Assembler,

FORTRAN,

COBOL,

PLlI,

or

other

languages.

•

Execute

programs.

•

Control

the

operation

of

a

system

with

TSO

from

the

terminal.

Your

installation

determines

which

of

the

facilities

of

the

system

you

can

use.

That

is,

the

installation

determines

which

commands

are

available

to

you.

When

you

enter

a command

in

the

system,

the

system

performs

the

work

requested

by

that

command

and

sends

messages

back

to

your

terminal.

The

messages

tell

you

the

status

of

your

program

and

whether

the

system

is

ready

to

accept

another

command. You

can

interrupt

the

processing

of

a

command

at

any

time

and

enter

a new

one.

If

you

make a

mistake

typing

in

a command,

or

if

you

fail

to

include

some

necessary

information

with

the

command,

the

system

sends

you

a

message

prompting

you

for

the

necessary

information.

You may

then

respond

by

typing

in

the

information

requested.

If

you

receive

a

message

you

don't

understand,

you

can

type

in

a

question

mark

to

request

more

information.

The

system

will

then

send

you

a

more

detailed

message,

if

available.

Whenever

you

are

not

sure

which

command

to

use

or

how

to

use

a

particular

command,

you

can

type

HELP.

HELP

is

a command

that

provides

you

with

information

on

all

other

TSO

commands.

This

manual

explains

how

to

use

the

command

language.

The

manual

is

divided

into

the

following

sections:

1.

What

you

must

know

to

use

TSO.

2.

Starting

and

ending

a

terminal

session.

3.

Entering

and

manipul"ating

data.

4.

Programming

at

the

terminal.

S.

Testing

a

program.

6.

Using

and

writing

command

procedures.

7.

Controlling

a

system

with

TSO.

Introduction

The

f~st

three

items

must

be

known

by

all

system

users.

Items

4 - 6

describe

specific

functions

a

user

may

wish

to

perform,.

Item

7

describes

capabilities

that

you

may

use

if

your

installation

has

given

you

authorization.

This

manual

tells

you

what

commands

to

use

to

perform

the

functions

mentioned

above.·
