SHOWCATALOG

SHOWCATALOG

     Displays information about User Defined Commands (UDCs).

SYNTAX

     SHOWCATALOG [listfile][;USER=username[.acctname]]

PARAMETERS

listfile            An arbitrary file name that identifies the output
                    from SHOWCATALOG that is sent to the line printer.
                    Specifying listfile will send the listing to device
                    class LP (line printer). You may use a file equation
                    to direct the listing of the catalog to a disk or
                    tape file.  If you omit this parameter, the listing
                    is sent to the $STDLIST device.

USER                Permits the user to list other users' cataloged
                    files.  Account Manager capability (AM) is needed to
                    show cataloged files for users within your logon
                    account.  System manager capability (SM) is needed
                    to show users' cataloged files in other accounts.

username.acctname   Specifies the user and/or account name whose file
                    names are to be displayed.  The wild card character
                    "@" may be used to specify all the members of a set

                    USER=username

                    USER=username.accountname

                    USER=@.acctname

                    USER=@.@

OPERATION

     This command lists User Defined command files, their
     commands and the level at which they were cataloged (USER,
     ACCOUNT, or SYSTEM).  This may not be the executing UDC
     Catalog Directory, as with the USER option.

     The user may specify a listfile to send the listing to the
     line printer.  You may use a file equation to direct the
     listing of the catalog to another disk or tape file.
     Default is that the listing is sent to the $STDLIST device.

     If SETCATALOG is performed with the USER option after the
     user logs on, the user's executing UDC Directory is not
     affected.  Only the UDC catalog set is affected.  The next
     time the user logs on, the UDC Directory will be built from
     this set. Thus the SHOWCATALOG command with the USER option
     will show the UDC catalog set. The

     SHOWCATALOG command alone will show the currently executing
     UDC Directory commands.

     This command is available from a session, job, program, or
     in BREAK.  Pressing [Break] aborts the execution of the
     command.

     SHOWCATALOG myfile

     FILE myfile;dev=disk
     SHOWCATALOG *myfile

     Displays all UDC commands for the current user and sends the
     listing to the a disk file called MYFILE.

     SHOWCATALOG LISTALL,@.@

     Sends all system level UDC files to the line printer under
     the name LISTALL.

     SHOWCATALOG,SCOTT

     Displays a list of the cataloged files for the user SCOTT in
     your account.
