Product Conventions - Recursive commands
Recursive commands are a specific group of File-AID commands which are entered on the COMMAND line and invoke File-AID and ISPF functions. File-AID suspends the current display and immediately presents the requested function panel. File-AID remembers the sequence of recursive commands entered. When exiting the function, the display returns in reverse succession to the previously suspended display.
Recursive commands are listed in the following table. The optional dataset-name can be an unqualified data set name without quotes, or a fully qualified data set name with single quotes.
