COMMAND
Specifies the action to perform on the object. The set of possible ac-
tions depends on the object type. As a rule, it is possible to show
(or list ) objects, but some objects do not allow all of these opera-
tions or have some additional commands. The help command is available
for all objects. It prints out a list of available commands and argu-
ment syntax conventions.
If no command is given, some default command is assumed. Usually it is
list or, if the objects of this class cannot be listed, help.
EXIT STATUS
Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer upon
failure.
