Raven commands

  • pico filename.for
  • FORTRAN filename.for
  • LINK filename
  • RUN filename
  • lo
  • help
  • help FORTRAN
  • cls
  • FORTRAN filename.for /list
  • TYPE filename.for
  • del filename.extension;version_number
  • purge filename.extension
  • Pico saves create new versions but only latest 2 saved
  • typos in Raven are a nuisance – backspace goes to beginning of line – delete deletes character to left of cursor
