CP (checkpoint)

The form of the CP command is:

CP,

This command is used for interactive purposes. It is not an executable command, simply a means of setting a pointer for the program.

When the HOLD command is executed, execution is suspended and you may type one of a number of possible responses. One of these is G (go); if you type G, control is transferred to the last CP command encountered in the code, and execution resumes with the command following that CP command.

When an A (accept) or REPLY command is executed, you are asked to enter a value. If you then press ESCAPE, control is transferred to the next CP command in the CL script, and execution resumes with the command following that CP command.

Example of CP command:

cp,
