The following is a list of standard parameters listed in many
command descriptions. Parameters that do not appear here are
described in full where specified.
<bool>......A boolean request string composed of keywords,
Attribute-Value pairs, and weights combined with
the logical operators "¬" (not), "&" (and), and ""
(or) [the descending order of precedence]. The
precedence may be changed by the use of
parentheses. Two examples of valid boolean request
strings are: "key1&key2key3" and
"¬(key1&key2)&key3" (see Appendix C, "Keyword

<dkeys>.....A display Keyword string. Each Keyword cannot be
more than 16 characters; the entire string cannot
be more than 255 characters.
<file>......A filename, which is a literal character string of
no more than 8 characters. If there is no <file>

is optional and not specified, the command is
executed on the current file. If "<current>" is
specified as the default, it refers to the current
file.

Attribute-Value pairs, and Weights. Each Keyword

Keyword string must be no more than 255 characters
long.
<iip>.......A <lp> that defaults to the Implied Insert Point:
the last position where text was added (deleted) or

Appendix D for all commands which use the <iip>.
See also &POP for an example of how to utilize
<iip> when inserting Blocks ("%<...>%").
