Using the Help Facility in SYSGEN's Global Module 

The help facility provides a list of the commands available at each
functional level of SYSGEN. In addition, help provides the syntax of an
individual command or the syntax of each command in the configurator or
at the first-level menu.

To obtain a list of the first-level commands, enter HELP (abbreviated HE
or H) at the SYSGEN prompt as shown in the following example.
