8.105 MSG (Display message on console like VM)

8.105.1 Function

The MSG command is actually a VM CP command. It is used to transmit message text to the virtual
console of other active users.

However, some programmers also use this command as a simplified way to display messages on the
own virtual machine console by using "MSG * <message text>". One program that uses this is the IBM
"System z" port of Solaris which is only capable of running under z/VM.

So basically, all the MSG command does is to display a message on the Hercules console with VM like
headers. Therefore the MSG command is not really intended to be used directly from the Hercules con-
sole as shown in the example below, although it does not hurt doing so.

The MSG command is the same as MESSAGE. See also the MESSAGE and MSGNOH commands in
this manual.
