<h3>1.2.5.5. W(hat</h3>
Identifies the name and state (saved or not) of the workfile.
<a name="volumes"></a>
<h3>1.2.5.6. V(olumes</h3>
Lists volumes currently on-line, with their associated unit
(device) numbers.
<p>
A typical display might be:
<blockquote>
<pre>Volumes on-line:
1 CONSOLE:
2 SYSTERM:
4 # MYDISK:
6 PRINTER:
8 REMOTE:
9 # BIG:
Root vol is - MYDISK:
Prefix is - MYDISK:</pre>
</blockquote>
<p>
The system volume is the default volume unless the prefix (see
<a name="prefix.35"></a>
P(refix) has been changed. Block-structured devices are indicated by
‘<tt>#</tt>’.
<a name="listing"></a>
<h3>1.2.5.7. L(dir</h3>
Lists a disk directory, or some subset thereof, to the volume
and file specified (default is <tt>CONSOLE:</tt>).
<p>
The user may list any subset of the directory, using the
‘wildcard’ option, and may also write the directory, or any
subset thereof, to a volume or filename other than <tt>CONSOLE</tt>.
File specification will therefore be discussed in terms of source file
specification and destination file specification.
<p>
Source file specification consists of a mandatory volume ID, and
optional subset-specifying strings, which may be empty. Source file
specifications are separated from destination file specifications by a
comma (‘<tt>,</tt>’).
