ABBREVIATION
en{able}

Format 3: enable FUNCTION-NAME/(SECTION-NAME) all

DESCRIPTION
The enable command reenables commands that were disabled previously. (See disable.) Requests are identified by request number as displayed by the query command. The ACTION-RANGE argument is either ACTION (a single request) or ACTION:ACTION (a range of requests).

Format 1: Format 1 enables one request or one request range specified by ACTION-RANGE.

Format 2: Format 2 enables several single requests or request ranges or both, which are separated by commas.

Format 3: Format 3 enables all requests for a section (SECTION-NAME) or function (FUNCTION-NAME). To use this form of enable, specify the function name or, in parentheses, the section name, followed by the word all.

Format 4: Format 4 enables all requests (for the entire program). If you specify only the all keyword, all disabled requests (for the entire program) are enabled.

Format 5: Format 5 enables the last request on the list.

Identical requests: If you issue a request, disable it, and then issue an identical request, the identical request is discarded and the original request is automatically enabled without an indication.
