HP-UX Commands for BASIC/UX

The following is a list of the HP-UX commands for HP BASIC/UX:

Command Function
rmb Runs the BASIC/UX environment.
rmbbuildc Generates a CSUB library.
rmbclean Cleans up BASIC/UX lock files and IPC resources.
rmbkill Kills a process and all its descendents.

For a complete description of the commands, refer to the on-line man pages on your HP-UX system. Access the man pages with the following HP-UX command:


       man command_name

where command_name is the BASIC/UX command. Execute these man-page commands from the HP-UX prompt in a window outside of the BASIC/UX window.

For example, if you want to know more about the rmbbuildc command, execute at the HP-UX prompt:


       man rmbbuildc

To print a man page to your printer, execute:


       man command_name | lp

where command_name is the BASIC/UX command. The output goes to the default printer.

NOTE
If the pagination is incorrect when you print the man page, add an -olnxx option after the | lp in the above command, where xx is number of lines per page (typically 66 lines per page). For example, to print the rmbbuildc man page to the laserdevel printer at 66 lines per page, you would execute this command:

         man rmbbuildc | lp -d laserdevel -oln66

Contact your HP-UX System Administrator for the correct number of lines per page for your particular printer. The number of lines per page for each printer is established in the model script bearing the printer's name. These model scripts are located in the following directory:


        /usr/spool/lp/interface

For example, if your printer were named laser1, then the model script for it would be /usr/spool/lp/interface/laser1
