HELPLIB.HLB  —  EDIT  /FDL  Qualifiers  /SCRIPT
       /SCRIPT=script-title

    This qualifier controls whether the Edit/FDL utility begins the
    session by asking a logically grouped sequence of questions to
    aid you in creating the FDL file.

    ADD_KEY      Allows you to model or add to the attributes of a
                 new index.

    DELETE_KEY   Allows you to remove attributes from the highest
                 index of your file.

    INDEXED      Begins a dialogue in which you are prompted for
                 information about the indexed data file to be
                 created from the FDL file. the Edit/FDL utility
                 supplies values for certain attributes.

    OPTIMIZE     Requires that you use the analysis information from
                 an FDL file that was created with the Analyze/RMS_
                 File utility (ANALYZE/RMS_FILE). The FDL file itself
                 is one of the inputs to the Edit/FDL utility (EDIT
                 /FDL). In other words, you can tune the parameters
                 of all your indexes using the file statistics
                 gathered from a file analysis.

    RELATIVE     Begins a dialogue in which you are prompted for
                 information about the relative data file to be
                 created from the FDL file. the Edit/FDL utility
                 supplies values for certain attributes.

    SEQUENTIAL   Begins a dialogue in which you are prompted for
                 information about the sequential data file to be
                 created from the FDL file. the Edit/FDL utility
                 supplies values for certain attributes.

    TOUCHUP      Begins a dialogue in which you are prompted for
                 information about the changes you want to make to an
                 existing index.

    Example

  $ EDIT/FDL/SCRIPT=INDEXED TEMP_DATA

    This command begins an interactive session in which both the
    main menu and the script menu are bypassed. Instead, the Indexed
    script is generated immediately.
