34 option ".<replaceable>path num</replaceable>" must be used to specify one of the standard |
| 139 | 35 output paths (0, 1 or 2) to change the terminal's operating |
| 36 characteristics. The change will remain in effect until the path is | |
| 37 closed. To effect a permanent change to a device characteristic, | |
| 38 the device descriptor must be changed. | |

| 41 This command can work only if a path to the file/device has already | |
| 42 been opened. You may alter the device descriptor to set a device's | |
| 43 initial operating parameter (see the System Programmer's Manual). | |
