No characters
A command line with no characters is a null
command. The SRM Console program takes no
action and does not issue an error message; it returns
the SRM Console prompt. The SRM Console
supports command line recall and editing.
Spaces or Tabs
Multiple adjacent spaces and tabs are compressed
and treated as a single space. The SRM Console
program ignores leading and trailing spaces.

a command until it is terminated. If no characters
are entered and this key is pressed, the SRM
Console just redisplays the prompt.

last character on the line to be continued.
Backspace
Deletes the previous character.

Help

displays available options.
