BUILD
Build a text file from standard input
build
path
Description
This command is used to build short text files by copying the
standard input path into the file specified by
path. Build creates a file according to the pathlist parameter,
then displays a "?"
prompt to request an input line. Each line entered is written to
the output path (file). Entering a line consisting of a carriage
return only causes build to terminate.
Example:
build small_file
build /p (copies keyboard to printer)
The standard input path may also be redirected to a file. Below is
an example:
build <mytext /T2 (copies file "mytext" to terminal T2)
OS9: build newfile
