Ellipsis (...)
An ellipsis indicates that a command accepts multiple entries of the last argument type. For
example, the ellipsis in the following command indicates that
catalog-add-bundle
can
accept multiple bundles:
rug bundle-history [options] [search-string] [...]
Option Flags
Commands that do not have command-specific options (they accept only the standard option
flags) do not have options listed as an argument in the command reference. For example, the
reference entry for the following command does not list options because it accepts only the
standard flags:
rug list-updates (lu) [catalog]
However, the following command lists options because the command has a command-specific
option (-a):
rug bundle-history [options] [search-string] [...]
Commands
rug provides a number of commands (shown as [command] in the Syntax section). Each command
accepts the option flags listed in the Global Options section. In addition, many commands have
specific option flags that are listed with the commands.
The most commonly used command is
rug update
which downloads and installs updates in
catalogs to which you are subscribed.
