Understanding the command syntax flow charts
Many HFDL statements offer several options. This chapter
represents HFDL command syntax in the form of flow charts,
which allow you to visualize the main command statement and
the way options branch from that statement.

If you want to enter a command in its short form, without
options, follow the main command line in the flow chart until

The main command line contains the required words and
operands. Under the command line, or under a branching line,
you can use optional words to clarify the command. Parameters
that are vertically stacked (one above the other) under the main
command line or under a branching line indicate choices for that
particular parameter. Ellipses (...) indicate multiple occurrences
of the preceding parameter.
