Add Terminal Multi-Line Option for IRIS and Caché
IRIS and Caché have just single command lines in terminal available
The Command extension enables execution of Multi Line Commands from Terminal prompt.
This is a coding example working on IRIS 2020.1 and on Caché 2018.1.3
It will not be kept in sync with new versions
It is also NOT serviced by InterSystems Support !
Import %ZML.xml to Namespace %SYS
Optionally you may add this line to your %ZLANGC00.mac for simplified use:
ZML do ^%zml quit ; add multi line command in terminal
otherwise just call it from terminal command prompt
USER>do ^%zml
at the prompt USER:zml:1>
enter commands as usual
trigger execution by an empty line
stop multi line option with a single '.' (dot) at first position
USER>zml
Entering multi line mode. Run with empty line. Stop with single "."
USER:zml:1> for i=1:1:20 {
USER:zml:2> write i
USER:zml:3> write ": "
USER:zml:4> if $x>70 write !
USER:zml:5> }
