PCA$HELP.HLB  —  SET  SOURCE
    PCA Command

    Directs PCA to a specified list of directories for source files
    when source text must be displayed.

    Format

      SET SOURCE  dirname [,dirname...]

1  –  Parameters

 dirname

    Specifies a directory to search. If multiple dirname parameters
    are specified, the specified directories are searched for source
    files in that order. You may specify a OpenVMS logical name for a
    dirname.

    Note that dirname may consist of one, several, or all the fields
    in a full file specification, though it typically consists only
    of a directory name. A full file specification has the following
    format:

    node::device:[directory]file-name.file-type;version-number

    When specifying any of these fields, you must include the
    punctuation for that field as shown in this format.

2  –  Description

    The SET SOURCE command directs PCA to a specified list of
    directories for source files when source text must be displayed.
    By default, PCA expects a source file to be in the same location
    it was in when it was compiled; that is, in the same directory
    and in the same exact file. If that file has been moved to
    another location, you must use the SET SOURCE command to specify
    that location. Note that you must also establish a directory
    search list with the SET SOURCE command if you wish to view
    source files in a source window when in screen mode.

3  –  Qualifiers

3.1    /EDIT

       /MODULE=modname

    Specifies that the indicated directory search list is to be used
    in locating source files for the specified module. Other modules
    do not use this search list.
