/sys$common/syshlp/DBG$HELP.HLB  —  DEBUG  SELECT  Qualifiers

1    /ERROR

    Selects the specified display as the current error display. This
    causes all debugger diagnostic messages to go to that display.
    The display specified must be either an output display or the
    PROMPT display. If you do not specify a display, this qualifier
    selects the PROMPT display current error display. By default, the
    PROMPT display has the error attribute.

2    /INPUT

    Selects the specified display as the current input display. This
    causes that display to echo debugger input (which appears in the
    PROMPT display). The display specified must be an output display.

    If you do not specify a display, the current input display
    is unselected and debugger input is not echoed to any display
    (debugger input appears only in the PROMPT display). By default,
    no display has the input attribute.

3    /INSTRUCTION

    Selects the specified display as the current instruction display.
    This causes the output of all EXAMINE/INSTRUCTION commands to
    go to that display. The display specified must be an instruction
    display.

    If you do not specify a display, the current instruction display
    is unselected and no display has the instruction attribute.

    By default, for all languages except MACRO-32, no display has the
    instruction attribute. If the language is set to MACRO-32, the
    INST display has the instruction attribute by default.

4    /OUTPUT

    Selects the specified display as the current output display. This
    causes debugger output that is not already directed to another
    display to go to that display. The display specified must be
    either an output display or the PROMPT display.

    If you do not specify a display, the PROMPT display is selected
    as the current output display. By default, the OUT display has
    the output attribute.

5    /PROGRAM

    Selects the specified display as the current program display.
    This causes the debugger to try to force program input and
    output to that display. Currently, only the PROMPT display can
    be specified.

    If you do not specify a display, the current program display is
    unselected and program input and output are no longer forced to
    the specified display.

    By default, the PROMPT display has the program attribute, except
    on workstations, where the program attribute is unselected.

6    /PROMPT

    Selects the specified display as the current prompt display.
    This is where the debugger prompts for input. Currently, only the
    PROMPT display can be specified. Moreover, you cannot unselect
    the PROMPT display (the PROMPT display always has the prompt
    attribute).

7    /SCROLL

    (Default) Selects the specified display as the current scrolling
    display. This is the default display for the SCROLL, MOVE,
    and EXPAND commands. Although any display can have the scroll
    attribute, you can use only the MOVE and EXPAND commands (not the
    SCROLL command) with the PROMPT display.

    If you do not specify a display, the current scrolling display is
    unselected and no display has the scroll attribute.

    By default, for all languages except MACRO-32, the SRC display
    has the scroll attribute. If the language is set to MACRO-32, the
    INST display has the scroll attribute by default.

8    /SOURCE

    Selects the specified display as the current source display. This
    causes the output of all TYPE and EXAMINE/SOURCE commands to go
    to that display. The display specified must be a source display.

    If you do not specify a display, the current source display is
    unselected and no display has the source attribute.

    By default, for all languages except MACRO-32, the SRC display
    has the source attribute. If the language is set to MACRO-32, no
    display has the source attribute by default.
