QKECHO

"POW" is a SYMBOL in the OpenVMS world.  On our machines it points to a DCL 
file called PHD_LOCATION:PHDRUN.COM.  The help info in this DCL file is as 
follows: 
 
     This command invokes the PowerHouse main menu screen, 
     from which you can run any of the PowerHouse components. 
  
     Your terminal type may be entered as a parameter to 
     bypass prompting for this information. 
  
     Another option on the POW command is the security option. 
     Enter one of USER | AMGR | DMGR, to skip over the 
     PowerHouse Menu and move you directly to the basic PhD 
     Menu (USER), the Application Management Menu (AMGR), or 
     the Dictionary Management Menu (DMGR), providing you have 
     the access to the dictionary at the necessary security 
     level. 
  
The DCL file calls QUICK to run PDQKGO.QKG. 
 
"QKECHO" is an OpenVMS logical that PH recognises when defined to copy 
terminal input to whatever file it points to.  E.g. DEFINE qkecho test.txt. 
 
"QKIN" is an OpenVMS logical that PH recognises when defined to read
terminal 
input from.  E.g. DEFINE qkin test.txt.   
 
If QKIN is defined and the "POW" command is issued, the commands captured in 
TEST.TXT will be executed in the PHD.
