The following command file (consisting of one line), called “dm,” can be used to
implement all three commands:
display memory &ArG_lEfT
The following three command-file invocations replicate the three separate
commands:
dm
dm 1000h
dm 1000h, 2000h thru +20h, 3000h
To specify the order of searching several
command file directories (HP64KPATH)
•
Set the environment variable HP64KPATH to one or more alternative directory
paths. Separate each path from the others with a colon (:).
You can set the environment variable HP64KPATH to specify alternative
directories for command files. If this variable is set, the interface searches each path
listed in the variable successively until the command file it is searching for is found
or no more paths exist. If the command file has not been found after this search,
then the interface looks in the current working directory for the command file. If
this variable is not set, the interface only searches the current working directory.
This variable is typically set to point to a common directory of command files that
might be used by several people. You could also use this variable so that you would
not have to store command files in the same working directory as, say, source files
for a project.
The directories listed in the HP64KPATH variable are not searched if the command
file has an explicit path name prefixed to it.
Use set to specify or change this variable if you are using the command line. Use
export to set this variable from your HP-UX .profile file.
