CREATE-NEW-VERSION

@CREATE-NEW-VERSION <file name>, <no. of pages>

Create one or more new versions of an existing file.

<file name>

for version (v) see rule 3 below. Default type = DATA.

<no. of pages>

see @CREATE-FILE.

Rules:

1. Permitted for all users with directory access (D) to the file.
2. See rule 2 for @CREATE-FILE.
3. If version v already exists, one new version is created and inserted in this version. The old version is renumbered as v + 1 and so on. If v is higher than the highest version existing (= w) the versions w + 1, w +2, ..., v are created. Default version is w + 1.
4. A new version may also be created in other commands (for example @OPEN-FILE). The version is then enclosed in quotes.
