5.13 CMDSEP (Command line separator)

5.13.1 Function

The CMDSEP system parameter sets the command line separator. The command line separator charac-
ter is used to separate multiple panel commands on a single line. The default is OFF which means that
there is no command line separator defined and therefore multiple panel commands on a single line are
not supported.

5.13.3 Parameter

char

Specifies a single character that is used for command separation. This character
must not be the period ('.'), the exclamation mark ('!') or the hyphen ('-'). Although
the command line separation character can be set to the number (hash) sign ('#'),
this is not recommended because this could affect processing command lines that
contain comments.

OFF

OFF disables command separation. This is the default.

5.13.4 Examples

Example 1:

Set the command line separator to ‘;’.

CMDSEP ;

Example 2:

Disable command line separation.

CMDSEP OFF
