A-Shell Consolidated Reference

This directive specifies the action or sequence of directives to execute when the file is exited with the G or GO command. The sequence starts with the first directive following the equals sign, and continues until the $ is encountered. The special character % may be used to refer to the name of the file being edited (without any extension) while the @ character refers to the file’s extension.

Under the standalone implementation of VUE, the GO directive must be limited to a single line (e.g. GO=compil %$)

Example

This example consists of four consecutive lines in INI.VUE, shown below with explanations.
