Specifies how often the Log and Output windows scroll to display
output.
| OpenVMS specifics: |
default values
|
-
no argument
-
displays the current setting of the AUTOSCROLL
command.
-
n
-
specifies the number of lines that the window
should scroll when it receives a line of data that cannot fit.
Under OpenVMS,
the default value for the AUTOSCROLL command for the Log window and the Output
window is 1 (meaning that no output is written to that window while statements
are executing, which provides the best performance).
Scrolling can increase the length of time that SAS takes
to run your program. The less scrolling that the Log and Output windows do,
the faster your program runs. Interactive jobs might perform faster by setting
the value of n equal to 0.
To set the scrolling for either of these windows, make sure that the
title of the ToolBox window specifies the appropriate
window.
