Specifies the syntax of the user-defined command to be
entered by the terminal operator.
- FORMAT=BAL
- Specifies the user-defined command specified on this USSCMD macroinstruction
is in Basic Assembler Language (BAL) syntax.

'---p-+-'
- command
- Identifies the command. It is followed by one or more blanks.
- p
- Used to specify one or more positional operand. Positional operands are entered in the format Pn, where n is the position number of the operand. Each operand (unless it is the last in the command) is followed by a comma. Positional operands must appear before any keyword operands.
- keyword
- Used to specify keyword operand associated with the command. Each operand (unless it is the last in a command) is followed by a comma.
- value
- The value assigned to a keyword operand.
- FORMAT=PL1
- Specifies the user-defined command specified on this USSCMD macroinstruction
is in PL/1 programming syntax.

'-(----p-+--)-'
- command
- Identifies the command. It is followed by one or more blanks or by a left parenthesis (that is, positional operands).
- p
- Specifies one or more positional operands. Positional operands are entered in the format Pn, where n is the position number. If positional operands are used, the parentheses must be coded.
- keyword
- Used to enter each operand parameter. Each operand must be followed by one or more blanks or by a value enclosed in parentheses.
- value
- The value assigned to a keyword operand.
See Syntax rules for terminal operator commands for a description of the syntax, the input character set, and BAL and PL/1 value restrictions.
Note: If the USS table is to be searched twice (REP=VERB
coded), this operand is ignored on the second pass of USS processing.
