It is designed to to be a centralized control for batch jobs that are queued up on a regular basis. .B 2 Instructions The SKEDULE system is file driven. SKEDULE.COM reads SKEDULE.DAT to know what to queue when. SKEDULE.DAT is a text file that contains the names of command files to be queued to run. SKEDULE.COM is one of these files. It queues itself up for the following morning. .B 0 2 File_Layout .B 0 SKEDULE.DAT is laid out as follows: .LITERAL location:filename/qualifiers 1 - 80 location should be a logical but can be device:[directory] Day Code 81 - 83 EVR - Everyday NXT - Tomorrow WKD - Weekday SUN - Sunday . - .
