8.109 MSGNOH (Display message on console like VM, but without
header)

8.109.1 Function

The MSGNOH command is actually a VM CP command. It is used to transmit message text to the virtual
console of other active users without the standard MESSAGE command header. However, some pro-
grammers also use this command as a simplified way to display messages on the own virtual machine
console by using "MSGNOH * <message text>".

So basically, all the MSGNOH command does is to display a message on the Hercules console (like the
MESSAGE and MSG commands) but without VM like headers. Therefore the MSGNOH command is not
really intended to be used directly from the Hercules console as shown in the example below, although it
does not hurt doing so.

See also the MESSAGE and MSG commands in this manual.
