   RECORD  controls the disk output facility of the redirectable I/O  drivers.
Copies  of Console and Printer outputs can be created in disk files by the use
of this facility.   Use it to access either the local disk system (such as the
I/O Recorder package by Joe  Wright) or a remote computer running T3SERVER (as
described in the TERM3 documentation).

 RECORD Notes - 1/2 

   a. For  RECORD to  operate, it  must be implemented in the redirectable I/O
      drivers.  

   b. RECORD is indirectly tied into DEVICE.   To begin recording output  onto 
      disk files,  1) RECORD  has to  turn the  appropriate Driver  on, and 2) 
      DEVICE has to select the appropriate Driver.   Turning RECORD OFF during 
      a recording session,  closes the output file and makes it available  for 
      other uses. If RECORD is later turned ON, the output file may be deleted 
      (if the same file is selected to record into).  However, if a new device 
      is  selected while RECORD is ON (say,  DEVICE CON:=CRT is issued),  then 
      recording  is suspended (not turned off) until the recording  device  is 
      selected  again.   With  this capability,  if it looks like a  recording 
      session  is  not going well,  recording can be  suspended,  the  problem 
      fixed, and then recording can be resumed.

   c. Vs 3.1 updates (12/23/90, Bruce Morgen):
      - Type 4 version supporting  command line  quiet  mode,  Z-System  Quiet
        Flag, Program Error Flag set if a recording IOP is not loaded, etc. 
      - Incorrect terms replaced by standard device names -- "CRT" now "CON:,"
        "TTY" now "LST:."  
      - A quiet query mode (RECORD [/]Q) implemented to check for the presence
        of a recording IOP without starting or stopping recording.
      - The directory for CONSOLE.FIL or  PRINTER.FIL can now be selected with
        the DU: or DIR: form, although older versions of IOREC will only honor
        this for the first RECORD ON [P[RINTER]] execution.
