Table 5–2 Notation Formats for SRM Console Commands
Attribute Conditions
Length Up to 255 characters, not including the terminating carriage return or any
characters deleted as the command is entered. To enter a command
longer than 80 characters, use the backslash character for line
continuation (see Table 5–3).
Case Upper- or lowercase characters can be used for input. Characters are
displayed in the case in which they are entered.
Abbreviation Only by dropping characters from the end of words. You must enter the
minimum number of characters to identify the keyword unambiguously.
Abbreviation of environment variables is allowed with the show
command.
Options You can use command options, to modify the environment, after the
command keyword or after any symbol or number in the command. See
individual command descriptions for examples.
Numbers Most numbers in console commands are in decimal notation.
No characters A command line with no characters is a null command. The console
program takes no action and does not issue an error message; it returns
the console prompt. The console supports command-line recall and
editing.
Spaces or tabs Multiple adjacent spaces and tabs are compressed and treated as a single
space. Leading and trailing spaces are ignored.
