TECO Command

Function

     The TECO command opens a file for editing using  TECO.   See  the
     TECO manual in the TOPS-10 Software Notebooks.

     This command  runs  the  COMPIL  program,  which  interprets  the
     command before running TECO.

Format

     TECO dev:file.ext[directory]

     Where:    dev:  is the device or file structure  name  containing
               the existing file.  If omitted, DSK:  is assumed.

               file.ext is the file name and the file  name  extension
               of the existing file.  If omitted, the arguments of the
               last MAKE or TECO command are used.

               [directory] is the directory name  where  the  file  is
               stored.  If omitted, your default directory is assumed.

     You can pass switches to TECO by  preceding  the  switch  with  a
     slash  in  the  TECO  command string.  When COMPIL interprets the
     command string, it passes the switches to TECO.
