747.0. "Pb with BREAK command !" by LIL08::MALRAS (Knowledge is power, en France aussi) Mon May 22 1995 09:24

VAX/VMS 6.1
PCM 1.5 + ECO 1 (MUPA not installed : see 682.0)

When i issue a BREAK command, interactively or via a dialog file, console prompt
does not appear !

I tried this on VAX 7000-610 and VAX 4000-400 systems (with VCS, it works).

Any idea !

Thanks.

    Im not surprised it doesn't appear on the VAX 7000 as those systems use
    CTRL-P to halt and *not* a break sequence. The 4000 systems can be
    setup to halt on break or  CTRL-P and I recommend you set it up for
    CTRL-P. You can add CTRL-P as the argument to  the dialog SEND command
    via the speical-insert fucntion of your favorite editor.
