Long Command-Line Examples

The examples in this guide use the convention of a backslash (\) to indicate that a long command line continues on the next line.

The following two commands are equivalent. The first command is too long to fit on a single line, so it is continued on the next line. The second example, which uses short forms for the options, fits on one line.

On UNIX™, the command line might look like:

cdr define server --connect=katmandu --idle=500 \
   --ats=/cdrfiles/ats 

cdr def ser -c katmandu -i 500 -A /cdrfiles/ats 

cdr define server --connect=honolulu --idle=500 \
   --ats=D:\cdrfiles\ats 

cdr def ser -c honolulu -i 500 -A D:\cdr\ats
