:1 [id] [/DELETE]
time [/EVERY:date[,...] | /NEXT:date[,...]] command
#1 AT schedules a program or command to be run at a later date or time on
a server. When used without options, it displays a list of programs and
commands scheduled to be run. The programs and commands are stored in the
server's LANMAN\LOGS\SCHED.LOG file, so scheduled tasks are not lost if
you restart the server.
If you change the system time after scheduling a command to run, the AT
scheduler should be synchronized with the revised time by typing AT
without options.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
command Is the MS OS/2 or LAN Manager command or batch
program (.CMD file) to be run. When the command
requires a pathname, use the absolute pathname.
id Is an identification number assigned to a scheduled
command. To see the identification number of a command,
type AT without options.
time Is the time when command is to run. It is expressed
as hours:minutes in 24-hour notation (00:00 [midnight]
through 23:59).
/DELETE Cancels a scheduled command. If you omit the
identification number, all scheduled commands on the
server are canceled.
/EVERY:date[,...] Runs the command each time the specified day(s) of the
week or month occurs. Date is one or more days of the week
(M,T,W,Th,F,S,Su) or days of the month (1-31). If date
is omitted, today's date is assumed.
/NEXT:date[,...] Runs the specified command only on the next occurrence of
the day(s).
.1 BACKACC
:1 [[drive:]pathname [/F:[drive:]target] [/A] [/S]]
#1 BACKACC backs up permissions on the high-performance file system 386 volumes,
the user accounts database (NET.ACC), and the audit log (NET.AUD) while
LAN Manager is running. When used without options, BACKACC backs up the user
accounts database and the audit log.
This command only works on servers.
See also RESTACC.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
drive: Is the drive letter for the shared directory.
pathname Is the directory or file whose permissions are to be backed
up. If you don't specify a pathname, only NET.ACC and
NET.AUD are backed up.
/A Appends access permissions to the current .ACL file.
/F:target Is a target file to store the permissions. The default
directory is the current working directory. If /F:target is
not specified, the target is ACLBAKd.ACL, where d is the drive
letter of the volume being backed up.
/S Is valid only if pathname is a directory. It backs up
permissions for all subdirectories and files of pathname.
.1 CACHE
:1 [/BUFFERIDLE:[drive:]time]
[/LAZY:[drive:]{ON | OFF}]
[/MAXAGE:[drive:]time]
[/OPTIONS[drive:]]
[/STATS: [CLEAR | DYNAMIC]]
#1 CACHE establishes file system caching for a high-performance file system 386
volume. When used without options, it displays caching statistics.
CACHE is placed in the operating system configuration file at installation.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
/BUFFERIDLE:[drive:]time Sets the minimum number of milliseconds the
buffer must be idle before its contents can be
written to the disk. The range is 0-500000; the
default is 500 milliseconds. A value between
100 and 1000 is suggested.
/LAZY:[drive:]{ON | OFF} Enables or disables lazy writes. If no
drive is specified, the action applies to
all high-performance file system 386 drives. If
you specify /LAZY with no values, lazy writes
are enabled for all High-Performance File
System 386 partitions.
/MAXAGE:[drive:]time Sets the maximum number of milliseconds a dirty
cache block can be in memory before its contents
are written to memory. The range is 0-1000000;
the default is 5000 milliseconds. A value
between 1000 and 20000 is suggested.
/OPTIONS[drive:] Displays cache configuration options.
/STATS:[CLEAR | DYNAMIC] Displays cache statistics. Specifying /STATS
with no value displays the current statistics.
CLEAR clears the current statistics, resetting
all values to 0. DYNAMIC causes the statistics
display to remain on the screen and be updated
approximately once per second. (If output has
been redirected, DYNAMIC is ignored.)
.1 CHKSTOR
:1 [\\computername | /DOMAIN[:name]] [name [...]] [/ALERTS:{YES | NO}]
#1 CHKSTOR checks the storage remaining in home directories on a server.
When used without options, it displays a report of used disk space for
the local server. Only those users who are over their storage limit are
included in the report.
For each home directory on the server that is over the storage limit,
LAN Manager reports the username, disk space allowed, disk space used,
and home directory's path.
This command only works on servers.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
\\computername Is the server on which storage is to be checked.
name [...] Is a username(s) and/or groupname(s). Specifying a name
limits storage checking to the user or members
of the group. Separate names with spaces. If you
supply both a username and a groupname for a group
to which that user belongs, LAN Manager reports
the use of that user's home directory only once.
/ALERTS:{YES | NO} If set to YES (the default), generates an alert for
each user account that exceeds the storage limit.
These alerts are sent to administrators listed in
ALERTNAMES in the LANMAN.INI file's [server]
section and to the user whose account has exceeded
the storage limit. If /ALERTS is set to NO, alerts
are not sent.
/DOMAIN[:name] Runs CHKSTOR on the servers in the domain specified
by the domain entry in LANMAN.INI. To run the command
on another domain, supply the name of that domain.
.1 ERRPOPUP
:1 program [options]
#1 ERRPOPUP runs a program and displays any error messages from the program
in a popup window. Use ERRPOPUP with detached programs to detect errors that
occur when running the program. A detached program is a program that is run
from the CONFIG.SYS program RUN entries or started with the MS OS/2 DETACH
command.

.1 MAKEIMG
:1 [drive:]filename[.def]
#1 MAKEIMG packages all of the system programs that are on a floppy disk
into an image file. The image file is used as a startup drive for MS-DOS
workstations being booted by the Remoteboot service.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
.def Is an extension for the definition filename. If an extension is
not specified, .DEF is assumed.
drive: Is the drive letter where a disk formatted with the FORMAT /S
command can be found. If the drive letter is omitted, drive A
is assumed.
filename Is the name of the definition file to be used. The image file
that is created has the same base filename, but with a .IMG
extension.
.1 NAMES
:1
The following types of names are used with LAN Manager:
Alias A name to which messages can be sent. Each workstation's
computername and the username logged on at that
workstation are added to its list of aliases. Use the
NET NAME command to view a workstation's aliases or
add new ones.
Computername A unique name that identifies a workstation or server on
the local-area network.
Devicename The name by which LAN Manager identifies a disk resource,
printer, or communication device. A disk resource is
identified by a drive letter followed by a colon (for
example, D:). A printer or communication device is
identified by a port name followed by a colon (for example,
LPT1: or COM1:).
Domain A group of servers and workstations on the network. A domain
has a unique name. Usually, you must log on in a domain to
gain access to the network. The domain you log on in is called
the logon domain. If you don't specify a domain name at logon,
you log on in a default domain. This is called the workstation
domain.
Filename The name of a file. Under the file allocation table (FAT)
file system, a filename can have as many as eight characters,
followed by a period (.) and an extension of as many as three
characters. Under the MS OS/2 1.2 high-performance file system
(HPFS), a filename can have as many as 254 characters.
Network path A description of the location of a shared resource, consisting
of a server's computername followed by the sharename of the
resource. The computername is preceded by two backslashes, and
the sharename is preceded by one backslash (for example,
\\SERVER1\RESOURCE).
Path The location of a directory. A path can consist of a
devicename and one or more directory names. A
backslash (\) precedes each directory name (for example,
C:\CUSTOMER\CORP\ACCT).
Pathname A path and a filename. The filename is preceded by a
backslash (\) (for example, C:\CUSTOMER\CORP\REPORT.DOC).
Sharename A name that identifies a shared resource on a server. A
sharename is used with the server's computername to form a
network path (as in \\SERVER\RESOURCE).
Username The name a person supplies when logging on at a workstation.
To view these definitions one screen at a time, type NET HELP NAMES | MORE.
#1
$1 There are no options for this topic. This is a help topic about the
different types of names LAN Manager uses. It is not a NET command.
.1 PORTACC
:1 pathname
#1 PORTACC converts a LAN Manager 1.x user accounts database to a
LAN Manager 2.0 user accounts database.
This command only works on servers.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
pathname Is the pathname of the LAN Manager 1.x NET.ACC file, saved
before upgrading the LAN Manager software.
.1 PRIV
:1 command [values]
#1 PRIV ensures that a background process started by an administrator on a
386 server with local security remains privileged after the administrator
logs off. A privileged process is a background process that has the
equivalent of administrative privilege. A privileged process can access all
files on the server for as long as it runs, no matter who logs on or off
locally at the server.
This command only works on servers.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
command Is a .EXE, .COM, or .CMD file in the current path, or an internal
MS OS/2 command.
values Are options of the command being run.
.1 RESTACC
:1 [drive:]pathname [[drive:]newname] [/F:[drive:]source] [/S]
#1 RESTACC restores the permissions for high-performance file system 386
volumes, the user accounts database, and the audit file stored with
BACKACC.
This command only works on servers.
See also BACKACC.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
drive: Is an optional drive letter.
newname Is a new file to receive permissions from a file that was
backed up with BACKACC. The existing permissions on newname
(if any) are replaced with the restored permissions.
pathname Is the directory or file for which permission records are
to be restored.
/F:source Is the source file used to restore permissions. If source is
omitted, LAN Manager uses LANMAN\ACCOUNTS\ACLBAKd.ACL, where
d is the drive letter of the volume being backed up.
/S Is used with pathname only. It restores permissions for all
subdirectories of the specified directory.
.1 RPLDSABL
:1
#1 RPLDSABL disables the Remoteboot service at a workstation that has a hard
disk. Use RPLDSABL at a workstation that is no longer going to be started
remotely. After running RPLDSABL, the workstation boots from its own hard
disk instead of from a server running the Remoteboot service.

.1 RPLENABL
:1
#1 RPLENABL enables the Remoteboot service at a workstation that has a hard
disk. It configures the hard disk so that the workstation can be started
from a server that is running the Remoteboot service. This does not prevent
access to the hard disk after the workstation is booted remotely.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$1
There are no options for this utility.
.1 SYNTAX
:1
The following conventions are used to distinguish command syntax:
<20> Capital letters represent words that must be typed as shown. Lower-
case letters represent names of items that may vary, such as filenames.
<20> The [ and ] characters surround optional items that can be supplied
with the command.
<20> The { and } characters surround lists of items. You must supply one
of the items with the command.
<20> The | character separates items in a list. Only one of the items can
be supplied with the command.
For example, in the following syntax, you must type NET COMMAND and
either OPTION1 or OPTION2. Supplying a name is optional.
NET COMMAND [name] {OPTION1 | OPTION2}
<20> The [...] characters mean you can repeat the previous item.
Separate items with spaces.
<20> The [,...] characters mean you can repeat the previous item, but
you must separate items with commas or semicolons, not spaces.
#1
$1 There are no options for this topic. This topic is about how to
read syntax lines. It is not a NET command.
.1 NET
.2 ACCESS
:2 [resource]
resource [/ADD [name:permission[...]] | /DELETE]
[/GRANT name:permission[...] |
/CHANGE name:permission[...] | /REVOKE name [...]]
[/TRAIL:{YES | NO}]
[/FAILURE:{ALL | NONE}]
[/FAILURE:{[OPEN];[WRITE];[DELETE];[ACL];[...]}
[/SUCCESS:{ALL | NONE}]
[/SUCCESS:{[OPEN];[WRITE];[DELETE];[ACL];[...]}
[/TREE]
#2 NET ACCESS creates, changes, and revokes permissions, and sets auditing
for resources on servers with user-level security. When used without
options, NET ACCESS lists the server's resources and their permissions.
Permissions assigned to a directory automatically become the permissions
for files within it unless specific permissions are assigned. New
permissions then override the original permissions.
NOTE: /TRAIL can't be used with /FAILURE or /SUCCESS.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.
$2
directory Is the absolute pathname of a directory. /
name:permission[...] Identifies an existing username(s) or groupname(s)
and one or more of the following permissions to
be granted. Username permissions override groupname
permissions. Separate multiple name:permissions entries
with a space. An option followed by name:permission
expects everything following the option to be a
username or groupname and a set of permissions.
Type permissions for access to a disk resource
without a delimiter (for example, RWC). Type \PRINT,
\COMM, or \PIPE before the sharenames of these non-
disk resources when assigning default permissions. For
a \COMM resource, Y provides RWC permissions. For a
\PIPE resource, Y provides RW permissions. For a
\PRINT resource, Y provides C permission.
Letter Permission

A Change resource attributes. The attributes are R
(read only), H (hidden), S (system), and A (archive).
C Create files and directories in a shared
directory. Users with this permission can change the
file only while creating it.
D Delete files and subdirectories within the shared
directory, but not the shared directory.
N (No) Denies access to a resource.
P Change permissions for a directory or file.
R Read, copy, and execute files, and change from one
subdirectory to another within the shared directory.
W Write to a file.
X Execute a command or program. Only MS OS/2 computers
recognize X permission. To allow a user with an
MS-DOS workstation to run a program, grant that user
R permission.
NOTE: X permission isn't needed if R permission
is assigned to the user for that directory
or file. R permission includes all rights that
X permission grants.
Y (Yes) Gives default (RWCDA) access permissions to
a resource.
resource Is a disk, directory (absolute path), file (absolute
path), \PRINT (printer queue), \COMM (communication-
device queue), or \PIPE (named pipe) for which
permissions are to be assigned.
ACL Does an audit when permissions for a resource are
changed. The audit records are only written if the
Server service was started with /AUDITING:YES or
an auditing event is listed.
ALL Determines an audit for all accesses to a resource.
DELETE Determines an audit when a shared file is deleted.
NONE Determines no audit for access to a resource.
OPEN Determines an audit when shared files are opened.
WRITE Determines an audit when a file is deleted.
/ADD Adds a sharename and, optionally, one or more user's
or group's permissions to use the resource. You can
name a resource and define permissions for it before
sharing it.
/CHANGE Changes one or more user's or group's permissions
for a resource.
/DELETE Removes all permissions for a resource from the
accounts database.
/FAILURE Audits failed accesses to resources as determined
by the values ALL, NONE, OPEN, WRITE, DELETE, and ACL.
/FAILURE also expands the resource display.
/FAILURE and /SUCCESS can be on the same command
line, but do not use /FAILURE with /TRAIL.
/GRANT Adds one or more user's or group's permissions for a
resource. Separate multiple name:permission entries
with a space.
/REVOKE name [...] Revokes permissions for one or more users or groups
to use a resource.
/SUCCESS Audits successful accesses to resources as determined
by the values ALL, NONE, OPEN, WRITE, DELETE, and ACL.
/SUCCESS and /FAILURE can be on the same command line,
but do not use /SUCCESS with /TRAIL.
/TRAIL:{YES | NO} Turns the audit trail on or off for a particular
resource. The default is NO. Do not use /TRAIL
with /FAILURE or /SUCCESS.
/TREE Reports permissions for a directory and all of its
subdirectories. If there are too many permissions to
list, specify a subdirectory (for example, NET ACCESS
subdirectory /TREE). The /TREE option also lists
permissions for \PRINT, \COMM, and \PIPE resources.
.2 ACCOUNTS

#2 NET ACCOUNTS sets a server's role in the domain, and modifies password
and logon requirements for all accounts. This information is stored in
the LANMAN\ACCOUNTS\NET.ACC file, along with user accounts and resource
permissions. When used without options, NET ACCOUNTS displays the current
settings for password and logon limitations and the role of a server.
Several conditions are required for options used with NET ACCOUNTS
to take effect:
<20> The server must have user-level security.
<20> The password and logon requirements are only effective if user
accounts have been set up (use the NET USER command).
<20> The Netlogon service must be running on all servers in the domain
that verify logon.
<20> All workstations and servers that log on in the domain must have
the same domain entry in the LANMAN.INI file.
To get Help one screen at a time, type NET HELP command | MORE.

BACKUP Specifies that the server can verify logon
requests by maintaining a copy of the
domain's user accounts database. A domain
can have more than one backup server.
MEMBER Specifies that the server can neither update
the user accounts database nor verify logon
requests, but maintains a copy of the domain's
user accounts database. A domain can have
more than one member server.
PRIMARY Specifies that the server creates and maintains
the user accounts database. This server is the
default server for verifying logon requests.
STANDALONE Specifies a server with user-level security
that maintains its own user accounts database
and does not participate in domain logon.
/UNIQUEPW:number Requires that a user's passwords be unique
through the specified number of password
changes. The maximum value is 8.
.2 ADMIN

server waits before sending repeat notices to the
import computers. The range is 0-10; the default is 3.
/RANDOM:seconds Sets the maximum number of seconds an import computer
can wait before requesting an update. An import
computer uses the export server's maximum value of
/RANDOM to generate a random number of seconds (from
0 to /RANDOM). The range is 1-120; the default is
60 seconds.
/REPLICATE:{EXPORT | IMPORT | BOTH}
Determines whether the server exports files and
directories, imports files and directories, or
both. EXPORT is the server that maintains a master
tree to be replicated. The Replicator service checks
these directories and files for changes and notifies
servers that import the files or directories. If
EXPORT is not used, the Replicator service does
not monitor the specified tree for changes.
IMPORT is the computer to receive update notices
from the export server. If /REPLICATE is specified
without options, IMPORT is assumed. BOTH specifies
that a server is to export and import directories
or files.
/TRYUSER:{YES | NO} Determines whether the Replicator service attempts
to update files to an import computer if a user is
logged on to the network. If the value is YES, the
username and password must be valid. If NO, the
Replicator service only updates when the user is
logged off, using the /LOGON and /PASSWORD options
to supply the logon information.

This is a 3-digit value:
<20> The first digit is 1 (the default) if the battery
can signal the UPS service upon power failure, or
0 if it cannot.
<20> The second digit is 0 (the default) if the battery
does not signal the UPS service about low power,
and 1 if it signals when a specified amount, such
as 2 minutes worth, of power remains.
<20> The third digit is 1 if the battery accepts a
shutdown signal from the UPS service, and 0
(the default) if it does not. If the third digit
is 1, the UPS service does an orderly shutdown of
the LAN Manager software, and then the battery
stops providing backup power to the computer. When
the battery detects power restoration, it restarts
the computer.
/VOLTLEVELS:### Specifies the voltage levels for the signals listed
in the /SIGNALS entry. This is a 3-digit value:
<20> The first digit is 0 if the battery uses a negative
voltage to signal the UPS service of a power
failure, and 1 (the default) if it uses a positive
voltage.
<20> The second digit is 0 (the default) if the battery
uses a negative voltage to signal the UPS service
that it has less than 2 minutes of power remaining,
and 1 if it uses a positive voltage.
<20> The third digit is 0 (the default) if the battery
recognizes a negative voltage as the shutoff
signal, or 1 if it recognizes a positive voltage
as the shutoff signal.
Note that the /BATTERYTIME, /RECHARGE, /SIGNALS, and /VOLTLEVELS options
should be configured based on the power supply specification.

/PRINTBUFTIME:sec Is the number of seconds the PRN: print device is
kept open (for compatibility-mode print
requests). Most applications that use MS OS/2
compatibility mode do not explicitly close the
PRN: print device to tell MS OS/2 to send the
contents of the print buffer to the printer
queue. The range is 0-65535; the default is
90 seconds.

/*
This is how this file works. NET HELP looks for a match between the command
specified at run time and one of the entries in this file. For each entry
in this file there can be associated with it a subentry, which constitutes
an option for that command (or sub-command). HELP (NET HELP) first searches
for a match at level 1. If it finds a match at this level it continues
searching for a sub-level (if one was specified at run time). As HELP
finds matches it displays them , by doing so it builds the command
in it's proper syntax. If no sub commands were entered at run time HELP
stops and displays the help associated with that level.
SOME RULES:
Operators are the funny 2 character symbols that start every line -
they are the characters !, %, ., :, and # followed by a alphanumeric
character.
Every operator must start in column 1.
Every operator must be separated from the info that follows it by at
least one space.
The end of every line must contain a newline. (Trailing spaces will
causes matches to fail on ".X" entries.)
Every ".1" entry MUST have a corresponding "#1" entry.
This file consists of 4 sections. These sections are ...
COMMENTS are delimited by a "/*" at the beginning of a line (must
start in column 1) indicating the beginning of the comment section.
A "*/" at the beginning of a line marks the end of the comment sec-
tion. Only two comment section are allowed, one at the very be-
ginning of the file and one at the very end. It is recommended that
the comment section at the beginning of the file be kept very
small to minimize access time to "help data" by the help command.
ALIASES are defined by a "%A" beginning in column 1. Aliases allow
you to define another name for a given command. For example if
you wish to change the name of the "ALERTER" to "WATCHDOG"
you could do so by entering the line,
%A ALERTER: WATCHDOG
starting at column 1. If there are additional Aliases they should
be specified on the same line separated by commas. This tells the
help command that if someone types "net help watchdog" they really
mean "net help alerter." Trailing spaces are significant (for this
release) in alias names. Beware!
COMMANDS are additional commands that you want NET HELP to document.
They are defined by placing !C operator (yes starting in column
1) followed by the command name on a separate line.
An example of this is the AT commands. This
is not really NET commands but you can get help on it through
NET by entering it with the COMMANDS section in this file. For
example if you want to get help on your PHONE command that you wrote
and the only help utility you have is the NET HELP utility. To
add phone to this utility you must place the following line in the
Commands section of this file,
!C PHONE
starting in column 1. Now all that remains is to add the PHONE
help data to the DATA section of this file. (See DATA below)
(YES, you can assign aliases to commands that you declare in this
section. But you must assign the aliases in the alias section
first.)
DATA is the actual text that gets printed when you request help.
The format for the data section is set up in a way such that
the NET HELP command picks up information about a command as it
reads through this file. The format of the data section is as
follows;
The Command Name (this is the proper name used to reference a
specific command - any other name used to access this command should
be entered in the alias list above) should be preceded by a
".1". This defines that this Command Name would normally be the
first thing typed when entering the command. An example of a ".1"
Command Name would be NET. When HELP finds this entry, it knows
what follows pertains to the NET command. What follows this ".1"
entry can be one of 2 possible fields. The syntax operator ":1" or
a sub option operator ".2".
Another option of the NET command could follow. If, as it
does, the NET command has many options that can be specified, they
should be enumerated on separate lines. Each level of help for a
specific command constitutes a higher "dot number". I think an
example would make this clearer. Lets look at a help entry for the
NET START command. The NET START command has additional options.
NET START [SERVER WORKSTATION ALERTER ...etc]. In this example NET
is the ".1" entry, START is a ".2" entry and SERVER, WKSTA, and
ALERTER are all ".3" entries.
.1 NET
.2 START
.3 SERVER
.3 ALERTER
.3 WORKSTATION
In the example above I indented each level, this helps you
visualize what's going on and is legal to do as long as the
.X starts in column 1.
This is all fine and well but what about the help for NET
START SERVER. As stated before HELP allows two levels of
assistance , Syntax and Help. You may choose to have the help
be the same for all NET START options but obviously want
different syntax displayed for each option. In order to do
this you must place the help for any option (or sub-option)
in the file prior to the help for the actual command. Sticking
with our original example, lets assume that the SERVER and
the WORKSTATION have enough in common that they want to share
the same help message, but the alerter has some different
information. We can accomplish this by specifying syntax, but
no help for the SERVER and WORKSTATION options and specifying
both for the ALERTER.
.1 NET
.2 START
.3 SERVER
(Syntax) :3 /Security /Autodisconnect ...etc
.3 ALERTER
(Syntax) :3
(Help) #3 The alerter is the service that bla bla bla...etc
.3 WORKSTATION
(Syntax) :3 /Computername /Chartime ...etc
(Syntax) :2
(Help) #2 This is the help for NET START bla ... etc
In the example above you will note a couple of things.
First, I introduced two new operators ":" and "#". As indicated by
the parentheses the ":" operator defines syntax data and "#"
defines help data. Secondly, you may have noticed there were no
syntax entries for the NET START ALERTER or NET START. In the
case of NET START ALERTER, there may be no more syntax to be
specified, since HELP generates the syntax as it reads the entries.
In the case of NET START, leaving the syntax field blank, tells
HELP to generate an option lists for the START command from the
.3 entries found contained in the START section. If however,
syntax information would have been placed there, HELP would have
displayed the supplied information.
This behavior can be expanded to 8 levels of sub-options.
All level 1 (".1") entries must have a help ("#1") entry. The end
of the data section must be marked by the following lines,
:0
#0
beginning in column 1. There can be no more than 512 characters in
the option field including the spaces between the options and the
brackets. White space following the ".X" operators is ignored, white
space following the ":X" and "#X" operators is printed exactly as
entered. If data is entered on the next line following the syntax or
help operators it is printed as entered, except that the first three
columns are always ignored.
