logto command

The logto command terminates accounting on the current account, then moves to another specified account. If a password is present, it must be provided. Passwords are case-sensitive.

Syntax

logto account.name{,password} {(options}

Synonym(s)

to

Parameter(s)

options f Suppresses the connection information

If the password is omitted and required, the system prompts for it.

It is possible to logto another account while at a pushed level. When ENTER is pressed at the TCL prompt, the process automatically logs back to the original account unless the (f option was specified for the logto command. In that case every pushed level below the current one also logs to the new account. Those pushed levels are still running the programs they were originally running, they are just in a new account now.

Any tape or magnetic media devices attached to the process when logging to another account at another level remain attached in the new account.

The report includes the following headings:

Connect time Number of minutes the current account was in use.
CPU Number of CPU units used by the account. CPU units vary from system to system, but are generally recorded as .1 seconds.

CPU units shown are about 100 times smaller than the CPU units shown in the FlashBASIC system(9)function.

LPTR pages Number of pages sent to the spooler.

Example(s)

logto dm
<Connect time= 217 mins.; CPU= 46 units; LPTR pages= 0>

logto dm,mypassword
<Connect time= 217 mins.; CPU= 46 units; LPTR pages= 0>
