with that option you can figure out what statement(s) to perform from command line to achieve what you want..
(you need to look in smitty once...)

always be the first entry.
+command Tells the editor to begin by executing the specified command. An example would be +/pattern that would search for a pattern.
-l Sets the showmatch and lisp options for viewing LISP code..
-r Retrieves the last saved version of the name'd file in the event of a system crash. If no file is specified, a list of saved

-wn Sets the default window size to n. This option is useful for starting in a small window on dialups. The -x option is available
only if the Encryption layered product is installed.
-x Causes to prompt for a key. The key is used to encrypt and decrypt the contents of the file. If the file has been encrypted
with one key, you must use the same key to decrypt the file.
