Issuing Wait-for-Enter commands against multiple objects

Some

Catalog Manager

commands are referred to as Wait-for-Enter (WFE) commands. These commands enable you to select multiple source objects in a list and process them collectively to save time.

You can issue commands against all objects in a list, or against sequential or nonsequential objects by using the following methods:

To issue a command against individually selected objects
Issuing a shortcut command
To issue a command against all objects in the list
To exclude listed objects

To issue a command against individually selected objects

In the Cmd (C) column beside each source object name, type the command (see the following figure).
Warning
Note
To avoid possible conflicts, include a space after commands that you type in the Cmd (C) column when those commands overlap the value in the adjoining column.
