5.2 Getting help

Use the `help' command to access on-line help. Typing `help' with no parameters shows a list of all available commands, together with general conventions for using the commands. The `help' command can be optionally given a command name as a parameter to access command-specific help.

In command-specific help, arguments in angle brackets (<, >) denote obligatory command parameters, while arguments in square brackets ([, ]) are optional. A vertical bar (|) denotes selection between several alternatives. Arguments in double quotes should be entered literally (without the quotes themselves).
