Figure 1. System command format
required for some commands
The following command format is depicted in
Figure 1:
- Optional command prefixes or blanks
- Command
- One or more blanks
- Optional comments, and optional commas between operands: [operand[comments]...]
- One optional blank
- Optional comments with optional embedded blanks: [comments]
This second format provides the opportunity to include a comment
after the command and each operand within the command. These restrictions
apply:
- You may, but do not have to use a comma between operands. Examples:
D PROG APF
D PROG,APF
- This format requires that each comment be contained between a
slash-asterisk and asterisk-slash pair. Comments may contain embedded
blanks. Examples:
D PROG APF /* comments */
D PROG /*comment */ APF /* comment */
