Run the TAPVITLD method from cron

This program runs the TAPVITLD method without an operator, so you can start it from a UNIX cron job. It opens the VIP and IDOL-IV object libraries, sets up the IDOL-IV system variables, calls a script that connects to TAPVITLD and then releases Basic.

00005 REM "Run TAPVILTD from 'cron'"

00020 OPEN(32690,OPT="OLIB",ERR=30)"VIP-OBJ"! Make sure you are not opening

00090 RELEASE                              ! Releases out of Basic when done

! Create a Script that looks like:
!
!MAINLINE
!     CONNECT METHOD "TAPVITLD"
!
!  Your Corrusponding IPL lines should look like:
!
!     DEV T0,5,,,,,null
!     IPL 1,2,T0,TABSTVTL

How to use it

Save the Basic program as TABSTVTL, the name the IPL line in the comments runs.
Create a script named TAPSTVTL whose MAINLINE contains CONNECT METHOD "TAPVITLD", as shown in the comments.
Add the two IPL lines from the comments: they define a null device T0 and run TABSTVTL on it.
Do not open the VIP-OBJ and IDOL-IV libraries in your IPL file as well. If you do, take them out.
