TRANSFER                                                 CP Privilege Class:  G

Use the TRANSFER command to direct your input file to a specified reader or to
reclaim closed virtual reader files that you spooled to another user.  The
format of the TRANSFER command is:
+----------+------------------------------------------------------------------+
| TRANsfer | spoolid|CLassc|ALL   [To] userid     From userid|ALL             |
+----------+------------------------------------------------------------------+
where:

spoolid  is the spool file you want to transfer to the queue of the userid you
         specify or retrieve from the queue of the userid specified.

CLass c  is the class of spool files you want to transfer.  The c is a one-
         character alphameric field with values from A to Z and from 0 to 9.

ALL      specifies that you want to transfer all input spool files.

[To] userid | *
         is the user to whom you want to transfer the files.  If you omit the
         optional keyword TO, the userid may not be "TO" or "T."  '*' denotes
         your own userid.

From userid | ALL
         is the userid from whom you want to reclaim input spool files.  You
         can specify ALL to reclaim input spool files you originally created
         and transferred to other users.


Usage note:

The TRANSFER command does not transfer any active spool files.

Responses

RDR FILE spoolid TRANSFERRED TO¦FROM userid
   where:

   spoolid     is the spool identification number of the file.  This does not
               change.
   TO userid   is the response to the user who transferred the file verifying
               that userid is the recipient of the file.

   FROM userid is the response to the user who receives the transferred file
               indicating that userid is the sender.  This is also the response
               to a user who reclaims a transferred file and userid is the user
               from whom the file was reclaimed.

nnnn ¦ NO FILES TRANSFERRED
   is also a response you receive when you issue the TRANSFER command.  It is
   not displayed if you issued the CP SET IMSG OFF command line.
