Aliases
The command line interface supports aliases. An alias is a short name for an
often-used longer character sequence. When the user presses
[Enter]
to execute
the command line, the command processor first checks the command line for
aliases and substitutes the replacement text. The command line is then parsed
and processed normally. Alias substitution is not recursive—the command line
is scanned only once for aliases.
Aliases are created and destroyed using the commands:
ADD ALIAS=
name
STRING=
substitution
DELETE ALIAS=
name
Getting Command Line Help
Online help is available for all switch commands. A multilingual, language-
independent online help facility provides help information via the command:
HELP [
topic
]
If a topic is not specified, a list of available topics is displayed. The HELP
command displays information from the system help file stored in FLASH
memory. The help file uses a simple mark-up language to identify topics,
access level (USER or MANAGER) and help text. Both standard ASCII and
Unicode character encodings are supported. Alternate help files can be
uploaded and stored in FLASH, then activated using the command:
SET HELP=
helpfile
To display the current help file, enter the command:
SHOW SYSTEM
The help file is easily modified, for example to provide detailed site-specific
support information. The mark-up language specification and preprocessor
program are available from your authorised distributor or reseller.
Also, typing a question mark “?” at the end of a partially completed command
displays a list of the parameters that may follow the current command line,
with the minimum abbreviations in uppercase letters (see Figure 1). The
current command line is then re-displayed, ready for further input.
