Commands are not case sensitive. Commands and parameters can be
abbreviated as long as they contain enough letters to differentiate them from any
other currently available commands or parameters. The Tab key can be used to
complete partial commands, or enter a partial command followed by the ?
character to display a list of possible matches. The following table shows other
editing keystrokes that can be used for command-line processing:
