Name

LIST

Synopsis

The LIST command, an editing command, lists the current line from the buffer.

Syntax

L[IST] [{b | * | L}[ {e | * | L}]]

Parameters

L[IST]

Is the command, which may be abbreviated L. LIST by itself will cause SQL*Plus to display all lines in the buffer.

b

Is a line number representing the beginning of a range of lines to list. If no ending line number is specified, only this one line will be listed.

*

The asterisk refers to the current line number. It may be used in place of a line number to mark either the beginning or the end (or both) of a range of lines to be list.

L

L functions similarly to * but refers to the last line in the buffer.

e

Is a line number representing the end of a range of lines to list.

LIST, and all the other editing commands, are described in Chapter 2.
