Help! I don't know any VMS!
Ah, young Jedi. You have much to learn about the dark side...
Rule #1: Never use Ctrl-C to kill a process! It will confuse the
CCD controller. Use Ctrl-Y instead.
To show the current directory:
$ SHOW DEF
To move up a directory:
$ SET DEF [-]
To move down a directory (say, to n2):
$ SET DEF [.N2]
To create a subdirectory:
$ CREATE/DIR [.N2]
To delete a file called text.com:
$ DEL/NOCO TEXT.COM;
To copy a file called text.com from the sys:[ccd] directory to the
local directory:
$ COPY SYS:[CCD]TEXT.COM *.*
To see the contents of a text file:
$ TYPE/PA TEXT.COM
To execute a command file text.com:
$ @TEXT
To edit a file text.com:
$ ED TEXT.COM
Make the changes you want, then hit Ctrl-Z, and type exit at the
prompt.
How do I send a user list to the 60" telescope computer?
Your user lists can now be located on any machine in the world.
To use them during the night,
you will have to transfer the ones you need to the telescope control
computer. To do this,
you will have to physically place the TCS computer onto the network. Then,
on the TCS computer, type:
* readuser
User catalog to install [1]: 1
Name of new owner of User catalog 4 [rrg]: rrg
Input is accepted from:
1 - Local file
2 - Remote computer file
Choose one [2]: 2
Host name or internet address [leda]: leda (or your machine's name)
Account name [user]: user
Password (not echoed): enter password
Pathname of file to get []: /home/user/rrg/abell_ra16_20.lis
Put the catalogs into user catalogs 1,2,3 as needed.
