2.21 On our systems we have quite a few file equations and most of the time, I only want to check the setting of one equation. Does anyone have a modified LISTEQ which will allow you to enter, for example:

:LISTEQ filename

and have it return just that file equation?

There is a file named HPPXUDC.PUB.SYS that comes with all 5.0 and later systems that contains a set of UDCs. There is a UDC in this file named HPPARSEFEQ, which will scan all of your file equations had extract the one you ask for.

E.g.,

:LISTEQ

FILE EQUATIONS

FILE LP;DEV=LP

FILE PP;DEV=PP

FILE ELITE;DEV=PP;ENV=ELITE.HPENV.SYS

FILE LP602;DEV=PP;ENV=LP602.HPENV.SYS

FILE T;DEV=TAPE

:hpparsefeq lp602 foo # foo is the name of a CI var

:showvar foo

FOO = LP602;DEV=PP;ENV=LP602.HPENV.SYS
