10.2 ISP syntax description

Format description

The statements issued to SM2 by nonprivileged users comprise the statement names and, in some statements, additional operands. The statement names and operands must be separated by at least one blank. Depending on the statement concerned, either positional or keyword operands can be used. Keyword operands can be entered in any order. If a statement only contains keyword operands, the comma shown in front of the first operand in the syntax is omitted. In the statement descriptions, certain metacharacters are used. These are described in the table below:

Format		Meaning		Example
notation
UPPERCASE		Uppercase letters indicate constants which must		NAME=
		be entered by the user in precisely this form.
lowercase		Lowercase letters indicate variables for which the		NAME=filename
		user must substitute appropriate values upon
		input, i.e. their contents can vary from case to
		case.
{	}	Braces are used to indicate alternatives,
					TERMINAL
		i.e. one entry can or must be selected from the
		enclosed values.			TER
[	]	Square brackets indicate that the enclosed
									ON
		entries are optional, i.e. may be omitted.		[,STATS=						]
		(Parentheses must be entered.)							OFF
Underscoring		Underscoring (underlining) indicates the default
								ON
		value, i.e. the value used by the system when		DISP=				OFF
		none has been explicitly specified.						NO
...		Dots indicate repetition, i.e. the preceding
						+
		syntactical unit may be repeated several times in	[				chn-no]...
		succession.				-
