<div><p>A command name and parameters make up each command. The parameters
used in CL commands are keyword parameters. The keyword, usually abbreviated
the same way as commands, identifies the purpose of the parameter. However,
when commands are entered, some keywords may be omitted by specifying the
parameters in a certain order (positional specification).</p>
<p>Commands have the following general syntax. The brackets indicate that
the item within them is optional; however, the parameter set may or may not
be optional, depending upon the requirements of the command.</p>
