%*
|
This command may be used when entering sensitive data (for example,
passwords). %*
causes all fields on the current
screen to be non-displayable.
When used with the SET
CONTROL
statement, %*
causes all
fields on the next screen to be non-displayable.
In batch mode, %*
causes printing of the next
input data record to be suppressed. The input line after the line which
contains %*
will not be printed. This is useful, for
example, for suppressing the printing of passwords.
Example of %*
in batch - logon to Natural
Security:
//CMSYNIN DD * %* SYSSEC,DBA,DBA ...
The printing of all input data in batch may be controlled with the
ECHO
profile parameter (see the Parameter Reference).
