Using Command Files
A command file is an ASCII file containing debugger commands.
You can create command files from within the interface by logging commands
to a command file as you execute the commands, or you can create or modify
command files outside the interface with an ASCII text editor.
The debugger can read a command file and execute the commands found there
as if they were entered directly into the interface command line.
Command files can also call other command files and the interface will execute
the called file like a subroutine of the calling file.

•
