******************************************************************************** Programs have been developed to save the user's CLI command recall buffer and to restore the user's CLI command recall buffer. The practical application of these is in a situation where the user is doing some repetative set of commands, then logs out to go for coffee and then later logs in to resume the work. By saving the recall buffer as you log out and then restoring it as you log in, the last 20 CLI commands are once again available to you without having re-executed them. To be able to use these programs the user must do certain setup procedures and the system manager must install one image with privilege. ******************************************************************************** For the users: -------------- 1.
