DSPCMDHLP DISPLAY COMMAND HELP TAACMEY |
The Display Command Help command displays the help text for a system
or user command including commands the user is not authorized to.
The command is useful for such functions as attempting to simulate
the system command line function. The QCAPCMD API is used.
The typical command would be:
DSPCMDHLP CMD(xxx)
The command help would be displayed.
The command is not prompted for and is not run. Only the help text
is displayed.
Security considerations
-----------------------
The command processing program adopts the authority of QSECOFR. This
allows any user to display the help text of any command.
There is no capability to run a command from the display of the help
text. Pressing Enter causes a return to the invoking function such
as a command line.
