j <jobname>

The -j switch forces A-Shell to use the specified jobname, provided it is not already in use. Otherwise A-Shell generates jobnames TSKAAA, TSKAAB, etc. (or uses the TRMDEF statements).

The -j switch supports two optional suffixes:

# will be converted into digit 1-9 to make the job name unique. Example: -j jack# will generate job names of JACK1, JACK2, etc.)

% Same as #, above, but does not allow jobs originating from different workstations to share the same base jobname. This requires ATE to enforce the workstation identification aspect of that.
