       /OPERANDS[=keyword]

    (VAX only) Displays operand information associated with an
    examined instruction (displays each operand's address and its
    contents, using the operand's data type). The keywords BRIEF
    and FULL vary the amount of information displayed about any
    nonregister operands. The default is /OPERANDS=BRIEF.

    Use /OPERANDS only when examining the instruction at the current
    PC value (for example, EXAMINE/OPERANDS .0\%PC). Examining the
    operands of an instruction that is not at the current PC value
    can give erroneous results, because the state of the machine (the
    contents of the registers) is not set up for that instruction.

    In screen mode, operand information is directed at the current
    output display.

    When you examine the operands of a vector instruction, any
    operand-element masking that might be associated with that
    instruction is performed by default. The /TMASK and /FMASK
    qualifiers enable you to specify some other mask. The current
    value of the vector length register (VLR) limits the highest
    element of a vector register that you can examine.

    See also the SET MODE [NO]OPERANDS=keyword command, which lets
    you set a default level for the amount of operand information
    displayed when examining instructions.
