      SHOW KEY  [ qualifier ] ...   [ key-name ]

1  –  Parameters

1.1  –  key-name

    Specifies the key whose properties you are displaying.

2  –  Qualifiers

2.1    /ALL

    Displays all key definitions in a key state. You cannot use the
    /ALL qualifier if you specify one or more key names.

2.2    /BRIEF_(default)

    Displays the key definition and state.

2.3    /DIRECTORY

    Format options:

       /DIRECTORY
       /NODIRECTORY (default)

    Displays the names of all states for which you have defined keys.
    If you specify the /DIRECTORY qualifier, you cannot specify any
    other SHOW KEY qualifiers.

2.4    /FULL

    Format options:

       /FULL
       /NOFULL (default)

    Displays all qualifiers for the key definition you specify.
    Specifying the /NOFULL qualifier gives the same results as the
    /BRIEF qualifier.

2.5    /STATE

    Format options:

       /STATE=key-state
       /NOSTATE (default)

    Displays key definitions for the state you specify. The /NOSTATE
    qualifier displays key definitions for the current state.

3  –  Description

    The SHOW KEY command displays a complete or partial list of
    properties for the key you specify.

    If you do not specify a key name, CDO displays the definition for
    all keys.

    You use the DEFINE KEY command to create key definitions.

4  –  Examples

  CDO>  SHOW KEY PF3

      In this example, because no qualifier is specified, the SHOW
      command displays default BRIEF information. This information
      includes the key definition and state for the PF3 key.
