(1) CMS> SHOW GENERATION/BRIEF

        Element generations in CMS Library DISKX:[TAYLOR.CMSLIB]

        CCM.FOR/2           CCM1.FOR/1          COPYTEST.FOR/2

      This command directs CMS to display only the element name
      and the number of the latest main line generation for each
      element. Because no element is specified in the command line,
      CMS displays information about all elements in the library.

    (2) CMS> SHOW GENERATION CCM.FOR

        Element generations in CMS Library DISKX:[TAYLOR.CMSLIB]

        CCM.FOR       2       7-DEC-1988 14:15:51 SMITH "header changed"

      This command displays the element name, generation number,
      date, time, and remark associated with the latest main line
      generation for element CCM.FOR.

    (3) CMS> SHOW GENERATION/FULL CCM.FOR
        Element generations in CMS Library DISKX:[TAYLOR.CMSLIB]

        CCM.FOR      2       6-MAR-1988 17:34:04 SMITH "header changed"
                File creation:       6-MAR-1988 17:24
                File revision:       6-MAR-1988 17:24 (1)
                Record format:      Variable length
                Record attributes:  Carriage return carriage control

      This command produces information about the file creation
      and revision date and time, the file revision number, and
      the record format and attributes, in addition to the standard
      CMS transaction information (element name, generation number,
      date, time, user, and remark). This additional information
      describes the file that was used to create the particular
      element generation, in this case generation 2 of CCM.FOR.

    (4) CMS> SHOW GENERATION/GENERATION=RELEASE5 -
        _CMS> /FORMAT="$ CMS FETCH #E/GENERATION=#G" -)
        _CMS> /OUTPUT=FETCH_CLASS.COM

      This example produces a file named FETCH_CLASS.COM that
      contains a fetch command for each element that belongs to
      the class named RELEASE5. The FETCH command retrieves the
      element of the correct generation from the RELEASE5 class. The
      contents of a file produced by this command might look like the
      following:

          $ CMS FETCH INIT.FOR/GENERATION=6
          $ CMS FETCH OUTPUT.FOR/GENERATION=7
          $ CMS FETCH SEARCH.FOR/GENERATION=3
