SYNTAX

show the command line syntax for the named command

<NAME>   Name of Midas command (or its abbreviation)

SYNTAX shows the syntax for the specified command, in the form:

        COMMAND <argument 1> <argument 2>  . . .

Unlike X-Midas, which relies on the explain file to specify the syntax,
NeXtMidas uses the command dictionary entry for the command. In cases
where the command takes in N+ arguments, the first N arguments are listed
followed by an ellipsis "...".


Examples:
  1. Show the syntax for the EXPLAIN command.
  
       nM> SYNTAX EXPLAIN
       INFO: EXPLAIN;SYS <NAME> <SECTION>

  2. Show the syntax for the PLOT command.
  
       nM> SYNTAX PLOT
       INFO: PLOT;SYS <FILE> ...

Switches:
  No switches.
