3 Syntax as a command: save arg

5
6 Function: tells the coordinator that one or a series of requests are
7 to be retained beyond the normal holding time. The action is limited
8 to requests in the specified request number series. The save command
9 allows requests to be saved for possible restarting until the
10 coordinator is logged out.

13 Arguments:
14 N
15 specifies the request number in the coordinator's saved list. The
16 coordinator searches its list of finished requests and marks the
17 matching request number as saved for later restarting. The request
18 remains in the saved list until the request is restarted by the
19 restart command or until the coordinator is next initialized.
20
21
22 -from N
23 specifies that all requests in the series beginning with request N
24 are retained in the saved list.
25
26 If no argument is given, the current request will be returned to the
27 coordinator and saved for later restarting. For printers, the
28 request will be processed to the bottom of the next even page and a
29 normal tail sheet will be printed, showing a charge of zero. When
30 the request is later restarted, printing will begin at the top of
31 the next odd page.

34 Notes: Once a saved request is restarted, it is not saved any longer
35 than the normal retention time. The coordinator never deletes the
36 user's segment while the request is being saved.
