.pop [-p] <register_name> [+][<relative_pathname>|-]
.pop [-p] <register_name> [>|>>]<register_name>
The .pop command writes the contents of a register to a file, to the step log, or to another register.
The optional -p parameter makes the command refer to a project register. Project registers are separate from ordinary registers, and project registers persist after a job ends.
The following examples show the variety of uses for a .pop command:
Register A is written to the file data.txt, located in the step's working directory.
The contents of register ver are appended to the file data.txt.
The contents of register Alpha are written to the step's log.
Makes the contents of register BETA the same as the contents of register ALPHA.
The contents of register A are appended to register B.
.put[/E|/e] [<relative_path>/]file server:[[<relative_path>/]file]
If neither /E nor /e is specified, the system uses the heuristics method to see if the dotcommand contains something that looks like a Windows file path. If it detects a file path, escape is disabled; otherwise, escape is enabled.
