Guidelines for synonyms

Command synonyms include a verb, a definition, and optionally, an object name.

Synonym verbs
Every command synonym definition must have a verb. Only the object name is optional.
Synonym object names
An object name is optional in a command synonym. When you do use an object name, however, ensure that users specify both the verb and the object name; otherwise, QMF cannot find a match in the synonyms table.
Synonym definitions
The synonym definition is the command, procedure, or application that runs when the user enters the command synonym.
