Explaining the VM CMS Commands

The CMS commands in Figure 21 are explained as follows. For more informa about programming CMS commands, referPrinto Services Facility/VM: Application Programming Guide.

is the same print fileUSERAPPLthat

by

OUTPUT

Defines the DDname for the file that ACIF creates as a result application's print file.
