Command Syntax
The command syntax is as follows:
command keyword keyword [value]
keyword [value1] [value2]
The Command is followed by one or more keywords. Consider the following rules and conventions:
Commands and keywords are lowercase and case sensitive.
Commands with keywords require one of those keywords.
Required keyword values appear in standard font: [value]. Optional values
are shown in italics: [value].
Underlined portions of the keyword in the command format indicate the abbreviated form that can be used. For example the Delete keyword can be abbreviated Del.
