Invoking SAS in Interactive Line Mode – CentOS

I’m running SAS in UNIX environment in Interactive Line Model.

And I use command “module load SAS/9.4”; “sas -nodms”
However It shows:

You are running SAS 9. Some SAS 8 files will be automatically converted 
by the V9 engine; others are incompatible.  Please see 
http://support.sas.com/rnd/migration/planning/platform/64bit.html

PROC MIGRATE will preserve current SAS file attributes and is 
recommended for converting all your SAS libraries from any 
SAS 8 release to SAS 9.  For details and examples, please see
http://support.sas.com/rnd/migration/index.html


This message is contained in the SAS news file, and is presented upon
initialization.  Edit the file "news" in the "misc/base" directory to
display site-specific news and information in the program log.
The command line option "-nonews" will prevent this display.




NOTE: SAS initialization used:
      real time           1.63 seconds
      cpu time            0.04 seconds

  1? 
  2? 
  3? 
  4?

I don’t understand what the number 1？ 2？ means.

    Pretty sure those are just the log numbers and the error itself tells you how to suppress that output: command line option -nonews

    You’re basically starting SAS with that command, not actually calling your program. When SAS starts this is the code that would appear in the log.

    The numbers are the prompts for you to enter your SAS code. You must have entered three empty lines for it show 1 to 4.

    When you are done you can use the endsas; command to exit from SAS.
