VMS Help  —  DCE  DCE_CDS, cdscp  DESCRIPTION  Editing the Commands
   You can abbreviate commands, continue a command beyond one line, or
   redirect output to a file within the control program.

   To abbreviate any command name, type only the first four characters.
   You can abbreviate a command name to fewer than four characters as
   long as the abbreviated name remains unique among all command names
   in the control program.  For example, the following commands are
   equivalent:

        cdscp> show directory /.:/sales
        cdscp> sh dir /.:/sales

   To continue a long command line onto the next line, type a space and
   then a \ (backslash) at the end of the first line, for example:

        cdscp> set link /.:/sales CDS_LinkTimeout \
        > (1991-12-31-12:00:00 090-00:00:00)

   To add a comment, use the # (number sign).  Everything following the
   # character on a line is ignored.
