Examples

   1.$ SHOW DEFAULT
       DISK1:[ALAMO]
     $ SET DEFAULT DISK5:[SKONETSKI.SOURCES]
     $ SHOW DEFAULT
       DISK5:[SKONETSKI.SOURCES]

     The SHOW DEFAULT command in this example displays the current
     default device and directory names. The SET DEFAULT command
     changes these defaults, and the next SHOW DEFAULT command
     displays the new default device and directory.

   2.$ SET DEFAULT NOSUCH:[NOWAY]
     $ SHOW DEFAULT
      NOSUCH:[NOWAY]
      %DCL-I-INVDEF, NOSUCH:[NOWAY] does not exist

     In this example, the default has been set to a nonexistent
     device and directory. An error message is displayed.

   3.$ DEFINE/TRANSLATION_ATTRIBUTES=CONCEALED XYZ WORK:[INVOICES.]
     $ SET DEFAULT XYZ:[HESHELMAN]
     $ SHOW DEFAULT
     XYZ:[HESHELMAN]

     In this example, a logical name, XYZ, is defined to represent
     WORK:[INVOICES]. The /TRANSLATION_ATTRIBUTES=CONCEALED
     qualifier tells the system not to display the translation of
     XYZ in file specifications. Thus, the SHOW DEFAULT command
     displays the logical name XYZ and not its translation.

   4.$ SET DEFAULT WRK:[SCHENKENBERGER]
     $ SHOW DEFAULT
      WRK:[SCHENKENBERGER]
     $ DEFINE KUDOS WRK:[SCHENKENBERGER.TEMP1],WRK:[SCHENKENBERGER.TEMP2]
     $ SET DEFAULT KUDOS
     $ SHOW DEFAULT
      KUDOS:[SCHENKENBERGER]
      =   WRK:[SCHENKENBERGER.TEMP1]
      =   WRK:[SCHENKENBERGER.TEMP2]

     In this example, the logical name KUDOS is defined as a search
     list containing the directories [SCHENKENBERGER.TEMP1] and
     [SCHENKENBERGER.TEMP2] on device WRK. The SET DEFAULT command
     equates this search list logical name with the logical name
     SYS$DISK. The subsequent SHOW DEFAULT command displays the
     search list logical name along with its equivalence strings.

     Because the directory field has not been explicitly specified,
     the original [SCHENKENBERGER] directory remains in effect as
     the current default directory; however, unless the current
     default directory syntax ([]) is explicitly used, all file
     references are to those directories contained in the search
     list.
