Just stepped over an (undocumented/unsupported?) command in notes: Notes> DPRI by trial and error, discovered that you can give it "P" as parameter and then get a message saying something like "1 note appended to job in queue sys$print". $ show/que sys$print didn't show any jobs for me - now what the h�ll does DPRI do ? Anyone out there care to shed some light on it ? Marc.

I understand it's used during the parsing of PRINT commands.
A side effect is that it makes "D" ambiguous, requiring DE at least
for DELETE.

re .2: > -< Notes won't submit the print job 'till you exit notes >- Yes, noticed that as well once I got out of notes ... looks like it might be something like a "Deferred PRInt" command. Why no doc / help though ? Marc | |||||

VAX Notes has default print qualifiers (SET PROFILE /PRINT="/QUE=QLN03").
This is implemented by taking the entire PRINT command, and forming
a 'DPRINT' command, so if you say ...
Notes> PRINT /COP=2
... it forms the command ...
Notes> DPRINT /QUE=QLN03 PRINT /COP=2
... and DPRINT is just like PRINT except that it ignores the first
parameter, and it doesn't apply the defaults.
Later, we realized a better way to implement this; suppose the PRINT
command had a /NODEFAULT qualifier (that could take a value). Then
Notes could form the command ...
Notes> PRINT /QUE=QLN03 /NODEFAULT=PRINT /COP=2
... which indicates that the defaults should not be applied (again),
and which causes the PRINT verb (on the user-entered command) to
be ignored.
