Have you ever wanted to get hardcopy from your DTB, DT or UPL's. Well now is your lucky day. When you need a DTB hardcopy, for instance, type:- $ UPL fred.txt Uploading text from AMS to file fred.txt, Type Control Z to terminate Then typeto get back to the AMS and do:- > ON CPY To enable the auto upload. Now everything that appears on your terminal will also go to the VAX. So:- > DTB 0 TO #200 will send the last 200 lines of disassembled trace buffer to fred.txt. Once you have done everthing you want type:- > OFF CPY to disable the upload, then:- > TRA to get back to the VAX. Hit control Z and UPL will write all captured data to the file fred.txt:- Writing captured data to file fred.txt. Please wait.... Upload written to file fred.txt $ The file fred.txt will be a standard VAX text file, all control characters will be stripped from the input stream, and only linefeeds will cause a newline. This procedure can be used to capture anything from the AMS that you can get it to send to the terminal. ******************************************************************************* P.S. If for some reason you want a binary file with all data as it appears in the input stream, type:- $ UPL - fred.dat Uploading binary from AMS to file fred.dat, Type Control Z to terminate Now all data in the input stream will go to fred.dat. But remember that some control characters will be trapped by VMS. (ie ^Y, ^C, ^S, ^Q etc.) and ^Z of course will still terminate the input stream. To be really perverse and capture all binary data you must set your term to PASTHRU. See HELP SET TERM/PAS. But BEWARE!!!!!! ******************************************************************************** In the (unlikely!?) event of bugs mail: CHARM::MORRIS. Jim.
