TRACE
Purpose: Sets/resets trace mode when processing configuration file.
Syntax: TRACE = <OFF>|<ON [DEFAULT=<YES|NO>][TIMEOUT=secs] >
Note:
Global trace mode may be activated by selecting a main section
'Alt-1..0' (See Configuration file processing). All sections to be
processed shall be traced then. TRACE = ON action is limited to the
beginning of the following section.
DEFAULT defines the default reply on the system request on the expiry
of the TIMEOUT time (in seconds) or on pressing the [Enter] key. With
DEFAULT specified, the request form shall be:
(Y/n/E) > or (y/N/E) >
depending on the parameter value: in the first case (as well as in the case
when TIMEOUT is specified with no DEFAULT parameter), the DEFAULT=YES, while
in the second case, DEFAULT=NO. In rest of the cases the prompt is:
(Y/N/E) >
If TIMEOUT is defined, the first triangle bracket of the prompt will be
bright white and blinking, otherwise, its color will be identical to the
color of other prompt characters.
If the global poll mode is selected (ALT-1..9 is pressed) then all the
user inputs can be programmed by pressing ALT-Y or ALT-N:
[ALT-Y] - always "Yes"
[ALT-N] - always "No"
The automatic input is not used with the TRACE command.
On pressing the [E] key in reaction to the system prompt, the current
line may be edited. It is worth mentioning that new line length may not
exceed that of the original line. At the start of editing, [F3] may be
pressed to restore the initial line. To insert a line, the following new
configuration file command may be specified:
TEMPLATE
The purpose of this command, which is itself ignored by the system, is
for a user to fill the line it occupies with something useful.
For example:
[Section1]
........ No trace mode here
Trace = On
........ User confirmation of each line
Trace = Off
........ No trace mode once again
[Section2]
