====== RSX11 odds and ends ======
This is a collection of useful commands and procedures for working on and administering RSX11 systems. Assumes at least some working knowledge of the environment.
===== Autoconfigure session at login =====
If you have commands you want to run at login, they can be placed in ''login.cmd'' in your UFD:
>type du1:[hush]login.cmd
set term/vt100
acd link ti: to number cle$emacs
show users
show time
===== UNIX style line editing =====
This is supported by the [[http://mim.stupi.net/rpmpkg?PKG=CLEACD|CLEACD]] software available in Johnny Bilquist's [[http://mim.stupi.net/rpm|RSX Package Manager]]. I highly recommend setting up RPM as it makes managing software trivial.
ACD supports EDT or EMACS style line editing. To configure it, you can place either (**ONLY ONE**) of the following in ''login.cmd'':
acd link ti: to number cle$edt
acd link ti: to number cle$emacs
You should now be able to navigate MCR/DCL sessions using arrow keys and other such things. Check out ''help acd'' for more information.
===== Autoconfiguring EDT =====
If you have commands you want run when you launch the EDT editor, you can place them in ''EDTINI.EDT'' in your UFD. For instance, to automatically change to character editing mode and set text to wrap at 75 characters:
set mode change
set wrap 75
To use the same ''EDTINI.EDT'' globally, you can add a ''DEF'' to your ''login.cmd'':
def edtini sys$login:edtini.edt
===== Which terminals belong to my mux? =====
Run ''CON DISPLAY UNITS'', the right column will show which physical devices correspond to the devices in your system.
