CES#help
Help may be requested at any point in a command by entering a question mark (?). If nothing matches, the Help list is empty and you must back up until entering a question mark (?) shows the available options.
Two styles of Help are provided:
1Full Help is available when you are ready to enter a command argument (for example, show ?) and describes each possible argument.
2Partial Help is provided when an abbreviated argument is entered and you want to know what arguments match the input (for example, show arp?).
