The /COMMAND_MODE qualifier can be used to force command-mode.

   After entering the /COMMAND_MODE qualifier, you will not need to
   use a slash on the command line, but can enter the various
   subcommands as verbs.

   You can force command-mode syntax, even for single-line DCL
   Peek/Spy commands by changing the Peek/Spy foreign command
   defintions to include the /COMMAND_MODE qualifier.

   Change the DCL definitions of the PEEK and SPY symbols from:
   (The _Vx should be replaced with _V5 or _V6 or _V7.)

     $ PEEK :== $ PEEK$LOCATION:PEEK_Vx
     $ SPY  :== $ PEEK$LOCATION:SPY_Vx
   to
     $ PEEK :== $ PEEK$LOCATION:PEEK_Vx/COMMNAD_MODE
     $ SPY  :== $ PEEK$LOCATION:SPY_Vx/COMMAND_MODE

   Once the PEEK and SPY symbols are so defined, Peek/Spy
   subcommands may be used as verbs in single-line DCL commands.

   Example:

         $ PEEK ALLOW JOE     ! Instead of $ PEEK /ALLOW JOE.
         $ PEEK WATCH *       ! Instead of $ PEEK /WATCH *.

   Note that in command mode, the WATCH verb is required.
   Wrong in command mode:

        $ PEEK JOE            ! Not accepted in command mode.

   Right in command mode:

        $ PEEK WATCH JOE      ! WATCH verb is required syntax.
