list NeXtMidas commands in the command dictionary

<NAME> - Command name to search for.      [DEF=*]
<FUNC> - Specify which action to perform. [DEF=LIST]
<SUP>  - Which support area to view (P=Primitive, I=Intrinsic, H=HostPrimitive,
         M=Macro, %=UserMacro, ...).      [DEF=*]
<OPT>  - Name of option tree.             [DEF=*]

Performs various actions, depending on the <FUNC> keyword, on the current
configured set of NeXtMidas commands. When giving command names, a '*' is
implicitly added to the end of the name, i.e.:
        nM> menu m

    Is the same as:
        nM> menu m*

The entire list of configured commands is filtered through use of the <NAME>,
<SUP>, and <OPT>  parameters. The <SUP> parameter and <OPT> parameters refer
to the command type and option tree, respectively. The keyword values 'ALL' and
'*' are identical and make <NAME>, <SUP>, and/or <OPT> parameters all-inclusive.


Functions:
  ENABLE   - TBD

  DISABLE  - TBD

  LIST     - Displays commands in the command dictionary that match <NAME>,
             <OPT> and <SUP>. If the option tree in which the command resides
             is not 'SYS', then the option tree name is appended to the command
             name (unless /OPT=NO is used).

  PREFER   - TBD


Examples:
  1. Display all commands that begin with the letter H in all areas and all
     option trees.
       nM> menu h
       HEADERMOD-I        HELP-I              HISTORY-I           HOMEPATH-I
       HTTPSERV-P         HW;HWC-M

     in the above example the trailing star is implied and therefore matches
       nM> menu h*
       HEADERMOD-I        HELP-I              HISTORY-I           HOMEPATH-I
       HTTPSERV-P         HW;HWC-M

  2. Display all commands that begin with the letter H in the intrinsic area
     of all option trees.
       nM> menu h,,I
       HEADERMOD-I        HELP-I              HISTORY-I           HOMEPATH-I

  3. Display all commands that begin with the letter H in any area of the HWC
     option tree.
       nM> menu h* OPT=HWC
       HW;HWC-M

  4. Save all commands (in path) to 'commands.tmp' including it's option tree.
       nM> menu/f=commands.tmp/opt

Switches:
  /F=filename  Specify an output file to receive the command list (<FUNC>=LIST
               only). Writes the command names (no support) to a Type 1000 file.
               If no file name is given the default file name is 'menu.tmp'.
               Since 3.1.1: To include the option tree along with the command
               name, specify /OPT switch.
  /FORMAT=#A   If /F is specified, indicates the format of the output file.
               Since NeXtMidas 3.1.1. [DEF=XA]
  /OPT=        Display non-SYS option tree with command. [DEF=YES, NO for /F=]
