fs_help

FS_HELP(1)						       AFS Command Reference							FS_HELP(1)

NAME

       fs_help - Displays help for fs commands

SYNOPSIS

       fs help [-topic <help string>+] [-help]

       fs h [-t <help string>+] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The fs help command displays the complete online help entry (short description and syntax statement) for each command operation code
       specified by the -topic argument. If the -topic argument is omitted, the output includes the first line (name and short description) of the
       online help entry for every fs command.

       To display every fs command whose name or short description includes a specified keyword, use the fs apropos command.

OPTIONS

       -topic <help string>+
	   Indicates each command for which to display the complete online help entry. Omit the fs part of the command name, providing only the
	   operation code (for example, specify "setacl", not "fs setacl"). If this argument is omitted, the output briefly describes every fs
	   command.

       -help
	   Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

OUTPUT

       The online help entry for each fs command consists of the following two or three lines:

       o   The first line names the command and briefly describes its function.

       o   The second line lists aliases for the command, if any.

       o   The final line, which begins with the string "Usage", lists the command's options in the prescribed order. Online help entries use the
	   same symbols (for example, brackets) as the reference pages in this document.

EXAMPLES

       The following command displays the online help entry for the fs setacl command:

	  % fs help setacl
	  fs setacl: set access control list
	  aliases: sa
	  Usage: fs setacl -dir <directory>+
	  -acl <access list entries>+ [-clear] [-negative] [-help]
