Enable/Disable Terminal Lower Case Option

PURPOSE:  The TERMINAL LOWER CASE option tells the system how input is to be treated and how output  is to be displayed.  This command is valid in a CM, PM, SF and as a direct command.

SYNTAX

{ENABLE; DISABLE} TERMINAL LOWER CASE [{IF; UNLESS} clause]

ENABLE

instructs the system that terminal input is to be accepted as received, and that output is to be sent as generated.

DISABLE

instructs the system that terminal input is to be echoed and received as upper case, and that all output is to be converted to upper case before being displayed.  If you exit ACCENT R with lower case disabled it will also be disabled at the DCL level.

{IF; UNLESS} clause

specifies certain criteria that must be met for the ENABLE or DISABLE command to take effect.
