The name of the file to be used for the SUSPEND operation. Note that this is
not created in a unique fashion for individual workstations (unlike View
Files) and so if SUSPEND is used on a network, care must be taken to ensure
that the rollout filenames are unique.

This may be done using the system subroutine ROLLOUT. This routine looks for
the name of the ROLLOUT file to use as the second word of @SENTENCE. Thus
the following code could be used to individualise the rollout files at login

      IF @STATION THEN
         * Only do this on a network
         ROLL_FILE = @STATION "R#8"
         ROLL_FILE : = ".ROF"
         @SENTENCE = " . " : ROLL_FILE
         CALL ROLLOUT
      END

To check the current setting of the rollout file, type ROLLOUT at TCL. Can
be amended.
