@START-SPOOLING <peripheral file name>

Start the spooling program for a peripheral, which is reserved by the spooling program and prints the files already in the spooling queue and those put in later.

<peripheral file name>
the spooling device.

Rules:

  1. Permitted only for user SYSTEM.
  2. The number of pages given to spooling files is compared to the number of unused pages belonging to user SYSTEM. If the latter number is smaller, the number of spooling pages will be reduced accordingly (see also @SPOOLING-PAGES-LEFT).
  3. If more than one version of the file is a peripheral file, the spooling programs for all peripheral versions of the file are started. One specific file can be selected by including a version number in the file name.
  4. An error message appears if <peripheral file name> is not the name of a peripheral file or if no spooling program exists for the peripheral.
  5. @RTENTER must be given before this command is executed.
  6. If there are files in the spooling queue, @START-SPOOLING causes immediate output at the spooling device.
  7. The first spooling process started causes the spooling program to be fixed in memory.
