associated with the correct language. If you specify /LANGUAGE=*,
LSE displays information on any adjustment that matches the
adjustment name, regardless of the language for which it is

parameter, LSE assumes you have specified a wildcard adjustment
name.

Format
SHOW ALIAS [alias-name]

format.
If you specify an explicit name for the parameter, /FULL is the
default.
/LANGUAGE
/LANGUAGE=language-name
Specifies the language associated with the alias. The default is

2 BUFFER
Displays the characteristics of one or more buffers.
Format
SHOW BUFFER [buffer-name]
3 Qualifiers

an explicit buffer name.
/BRIEF
Causes the current window to display (in tabular format) the name,
number of text lines, and information about whether the buffer is
modified, compiled, reviewed, or modifiable.
If you move the cursor to a line containing a buffer name and
press the Select key, LSE performs a GOTO BUFFER command for that
buffer. If you move the cursor to a line containing a buffer name
and press the Remove key, LSE performs a DELETE BUFFER command for
that buffer. In DECwindows mode, you can perform a GOTO BUFFER for
a buffer displayed in the list by pressing MB1 twice on the line
containing the buffer name.
If you specify a wildcard expression, or if LSE assumes one,
/BRIEF is the default.
/FULL
Causes LSE to list all the information available about each
indicated buffer, including associated input and output files,
language, and all the buffer attributes that you can set, such as
margins and text-entry mode.
If you specify an explicit buffer, /FULL is the default.

buffer name is specified or assumed. LSE ignores this qualifier if
you specify an explicit buffer name.
/USER_BUFFERS
/USER_BUFFERS (D)
Specifies that only user buffers be displayed when a wildcard
buffer name is specified or assumed. LSE ignores this qualifier if
you specify an explicit buffer name.

3 Parameter
key-specifier
Specifies the name of the key whose definitions are to be
displayed. You may use a wildcard character on the command
line to specify all defined keys or a group of related keys. If
you press the Return key before specifying a key, LSE supplies
quotation marks to any specifier you type at the prompt; thus, LSE
interprets an asterisk specified at the prompt as the asterisk key
on the keyboard and not as a wildcard character.
