The :EOD command is not truly a command. It terminates the list of input records to SORT/XL when * (for $STDIN) is the input file.

SYNTAX

   >:EOD 

The >:EOD (or :eod) command terminates the list of user input records when the terminal ($STDIN[ X ] is the input and output device. You input data at the system generated question mark prompt (?), and issue the :EOD command when you are done. The records are sorted and then displayed on the terminal screen.

EXAMPLE

The following example shows how to use your terminal to input and then receive a display of the sorted data:

   >INPUT * 
>OUTPUT $STDLIST
>KEY 1, 4
>END
