David,
Being the curious sort, I turned on my privs and played with the SET WATCH
command of V4.4.
It seems that this is an XQP debug tool, because it turns on various traces
when you use the filesystem.
The syntax of the command is:
$ SET WATCH FILE/CLASS:(option1,option2...)
The following options are available:
ALL
ATTRIBUTES
CONTROL_FUNCTIONS
DIRECTORY_OPERATIONS
DUMP
ATTACHED
MAJOR_FUNCTION
NONE
QUOTA_LENGTH
I used SET WATCH FILE/CLASS:ALL and then typed a file, copied a file
ran MAIL, and deleted a file. It is rather interesting. Also, the
messages typed on the screen do not use the VMS message utility because
I had done a SET MESSAGE/NOTEXT/NOSEVER/NOIDENT/NOFACIL and I still got
the full %XQP-I-ABCDE... message formats.
I don't know exactly which priv you need to run this. I would guess CMKRNL
and/or SYSPRV.
I got the information for this message by running the VERB program on
the SET command definition.
