Type Definition
Description account holding a file called "Peqs" which is used to reference spooler jobs as normal Pick items.

The data section of this file is a "QS" pointer to the "peqs:" driver. The "QS" signals the save processor to dump both the spooler header information and the spooler jobs to tape. In general, this is the only account that should contain a "QS" pointer to the peqs: driver. All other accounts should contain simple "Q" pointers.

At the present time, the spooler account does not serve any purpose beyond this. The "QS" super-q-pointer was not put into dm because confusion could result if the peqs file was restored accidently.

It is now possible to restore spooler jobs from previous file-saves. Two options are available; individual items or the entire file can be restored to a temporary file, then copied to the spooler as needed, or the entire contents of the previous spooler can be overlaid on the current spooler.

Note that the save must be done with the "E" option to save spooler jobs.
