Chapter 9  SET_UP
 
You may specify a setup file to initialize TOPDRAWER.   This  is  done  by
specifying  the  logical name TOPDRAWER_INIT.  TOPDRAWER_INIT should point
to a file with TOPDRAWER commands to be executed  when  TD  first  starts.
The  default  file name is TDINIT.TOP.  If you have a setup file then then
journal file and listing file are suppressed.  You must start them in  the
setup file if you want them.

                                  example
     $ ASSIGN TDHBOOK TOPDRAWER_INIT

The file TDHBOOK.TOP contains the commands:
     TD:SET HIST HBOOK FILE="hbook.dat"
     TD:DEFINE KEY PF3 "SET HIST TITLE PREV;NEW;HIST"/TERMINATE
     TD:DEFINE KEY PF4 "SET HIST TITLE NEXT;NEW;HIST"/TERMINATE
     TD:SET FILE JOURNAL HISTS.TDJ

Now  when you start TOPDRAWER your hbook histograms are already available,
and keypad keys are defined to easily access them.  Your journal  file  is
HISTS.TDJ and you have no listing file.

You assign:
     $ ASSIGN TOPDRAWER_INIT SYS$LOGIN
The  file  TDINIT.TOP  in your root default login directory is used as the
TOPDRAWER initialization file.
