| 2135.1 | There isn't a single list | IOSG::NEWLAND | Richard Newland, IOSG, REO2-G/L2 | Thu Jan 21 1993 10:59 | 14 |

You have to look at a link map to find a complete list of the Datasets in
your OA$MAIN image.  This is because this Dataset table is constructed from
separate modules using PSECTs. 
I don't know of a text dataset which does what you want.
What version of ALL-IN-1 and WPS-PLUS are you using.  If it is ALL-IN-1 
V3.0 and WPS-PLUS V4.1 there is a CSP to correct a problem with the 
WPS-PLUS formatter producing reverse video.

|  | Richard,
we are using CORE ALL-IN-1 (v3.0, WPS-PLUS v4.1), as provided by IS.
I am sure that Rick Warford once posted a note about the correct
DSAB for the COPY function (before parms 3 and 4 were documented).
It must be there, because READING a document with reverse video does
work, but printing (formatting?) don't.
I will give the link map a try, and if anyone out there does remember
what DSAB does full VT stuff, then please let me know,
Cheers,
mb
p.s. What's a CSP?

| 2135.3 | READ is different to COPY | IOSG::NEWLAND | Richard Newland, IOSG, REO2-G/L2 | Thu Jan 21 1993 12:05 | 88 | 
|  | A READ is different to a COPY.  The LIST function communicates directly 
with the terminal using QIOs.  It converts the text dataset stream into the 
required terminal control sequences and writes them directly to the 
terminal.
A COPY would require an output text dataset which writes the terminal 
control sequences into a file.
I remembered that I had produced a list of all the datasets in ALL-IN-1 
V3.0, so here the part which lists Text datasets:
A.2.2  TEXT datasets
The following table lists the 55 TEXT datasets:
	Module		Datasets

Many of these datsets do not have output action routines which would be
required in the form of the COPY function you wish to use.  The
TXT$COPY_PRINT dataset creates an output file with simple printer controls,
but it does not support VT terminal control sequences. 
A CSP is a Customer Specific Patch.  I think the CSP I was referring has 
been mentioned in this conference in relation to a problem with generating 
VTX screens with reverse video from WPS-PLUS.

|  | To get the CSP send a mail message to Alan Cottingham (IOSG::COTTINGHAM or
Alan Cottingham @REO).  If you ask for the CSP to fix the WPS-PLUS reverse
video problem for VTX Alan will know which CSP you mean.
