<p>Notes:
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li> The CLI commands are still handled by the <small>MI</small> interpreter; their
|
||
|
output is described below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
</li><li> The <code><var>token</var></code>, when present, is passed back when the command
|
||
|
finishes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
</li><li> Some <small>MI</small> commands accept optional arguments as part of the parameter
|
||
|
list. Each option is identified by a leading ‘<samp>-</samp>’ (dash) and may be
|
||
|
followed by an optional argument parameter. Options occur first in the
|
||
|
parameter list and can be delimited from normal parameters using
|
||
|
‘<samp>--</samp>’ (this is useful when some parameters begin with a dash).
|
||
|
</li></ul>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Pragmatics:
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li> We want easy access to the existing CLI syntax (for debugging).
|
||
|
|
||
|
</li><li> We want it to be easy to spot a <small>MI</small> operation.
|
||
|
</li></ul>
