Help with attributes

As you work with specific objects or commands, you can also use 

?

 to get 

help. 

For example: If you enter the command 

/c0 show

 and then need help on what 

specific attribute syntax is possible, you can use 

?

 to get help as following:

 //localhost> /c0 show ?

  /cx show
