This command provides a brief description of the context-sensitive help system,
which functions as follow:
• To list all commands available for a particular command mode, enter a question
mark "?" at the system prompt.
• To obtain a list of commands that begin with a particular character string, enter
the abbreviated command entry immediately followed by a question mark "?". Do
not leave a space between the keyword and question mark. This form of help is
called word help, because it lists only the keywords or arguments that begin with
the abbreviation you entered.
• To list the keywords and arguments associated with a command, enter a
question mark "?" in place of a keyword or argument on the command line.
Leave a space between the keyword and question mark. This form of help is
called command syntax help, because it lists the keywords or arguments that
apply based on the command, keywords, and arguments you have already
entered.
Note: To complete a partial command name, enter the abbreviated command name
followed by a <Tab> key. Example: 'show addr <Tab>'. To enter the character "?" in
the command argument, press Ctrl+V immediately followed by the character "?".
