Port Conventions

Port commands are a subset of Resource Manager commands. They are used to open, activate, close, and gain ownership of DLG's communication ports.

Shell commands supplied with DLG either return a 0 for no error, or error 10 indicating some level of error. This information pertains ONLY to those functions (Arexx, etc) that return meaningful, detailed error information. Unless indicated otherwise, the commands will return a 0 for no error. Otherwise, the error code will come from the list of Resource Manager error codes.
