DELETE
Format:	DELETE / ENTRY = (n, ...) [ / ALL] [/ LOCAL]
Description:	This command is used to delete one or more queue entries. Entry numbers can be obtained

by doing a SHOW ENTRY command. Up to 32 entry numbers may be specified. If the local node is a Remote Fax Server node and the / LOCAL qualifier is present, the entry numbers are the numbers shown for the "Local file copy queue". If the / LOCAL qualifier is not present then the numbers apply to the database, conversion or device queues. OPER or WORLD privileges are required to dequeue entries for other than the current username. Note: STOP/ ENTRY and DELETE/ ENTRY are synonyms and are identical in function.

/ ALL

Description: The / ALL qualifier is used only in conjunction with the lookup feature; / ALL has no meaning if the target entries do not involve a database lookup. When sending a fax using the lookup feature, the original entry is placed in the database lookup queue. Then, when the database application has found a matching phone number, a new queue entry is made in the fax device queue. If the lookup string contains a wild card, a separate entry is made in the device queue for each matching phone number. If the / ALL qualifier is specified and the target entry involves a database lookup, all device entries resulting from the lookup will be deleted, as well as the original database queue entry. If multiple entry IDs are specified, the

/ALL applies to all of them. If / ALL is not specified, only the target entry will be deleted. If the target entry is a database queue entry, active device entries will be allowed to complete, but no more will be started.

/LOCAL

Description: This qualifier is only valid when issued on a Remote Fax Server node. A Remote Fax Server node is a node which does not have FAX hardware attached but which instead communicates with a node which does have FAX hardware (called a Full Device Server node.) The / LOCAL qualifier is used to delete entries which are in the "Local file copy" queue. The entry numbers specified are the numbers shown in the SHOW QUEUE report as being in the local copy queue.

EXIT

Description: The EXIT command exits the CompuFax command processor. Its function is identical to the QUIT command.

H ELP
Format:	HELP [topic]
Description:	Displays the CompuFax help file. The logical name FAX$HELP must be defined as the

library containing this help file.

JN L2ASCII

Format: $ JNL2ASCII [[input_file] output_file]

Description: Displays the CompuFax help file. The logical name FAX$HELP must be defined as the library containing this help file. JNL2ASCII is a program included with CompuFax which reformats the journal file into as ASCII format which may be easier to process from most application programs. The journal file is a machine-readable file which is kept of all FAX completions. See HELP SERVER_OPTIONS JOURNAL for more information. The program is executed from the DCL prompt. The input file defaults to FAX$JOURNAL:, the currently active journal file. The output file defaults to FAX_JOURNAL.DAT in the current default directory. The output file is a series of records. The format of this file is completely described in the file FAX$DIR:FAX_JOURNAL.H. FAX$DIR:ASCJNL.COM is an example DCL command procedure which reads FAX_JOURNAL.H and for every record displays the name of each field and displays the fields contents. This can be modified to display particular records on demand. It is possible for the journal file to be disabled on a system by the system manager in which case journal data will not be available for processing.
