ISPF Primary Commands
The following table of standard ISPF primary commands are supported in the ISPF emulation mode.
Primary commands are entered by placing the cursor on the command line.
To place the cursor on the command line, either press the Esc key, click on the message line, or use is-
pf_retrieve ( F12 ). If configured to do so, the Home key will also place the cursor on the command line.
Once on the command line, you may use the cursor Up / Down keys to retrieve the previous/last command
entered, respectively.
Though primary commands may be typed at the command line explicitly, for convenience you can simply
type the last part of the command name in the command line and it will automatically be mapped to the
ISPF-specific command. For example, to execute the ISPF
reset command, simply type reset at the
command line instead of ispf_reset .
Note
Some standard built-in commands conflict with ISPF emulation commands. These conflicts in-
clude
copy , cut , delete , find , hex , move , and paste . To access the built-in command, you may
be able to use a menu option or consult the Help for that command for specific instructions.
