\? lists Special Commands.
:? lists Edit-Buffer/History commands.
*? lists PL commands.
/? displays help on how to set and use macros (command aliases).
SPECIAL Commands begin with '\' and execute when you hit ENTER.
EDIT-BUFFER / HISTORY Commands begin with ':' and execute when you hit ENTER.
PROCEDURAL LANGUAGE commands begin with '*' and end when you hit ENTER.
MACRO executions and definitions begin with '/' and end when you hit ENTER.
All other lines comprise SQL Statements (or comments).
SQL Statements are terminated by either unquoted ';' (which executes the
statement), or a blank line (which moves the statement into the edit buffer
without executing).
After turning on variable expansion with command "*" (or any other PL
command), PL variables may be used in most commands like so: *{PLVARNAME}.
Be aware when using regular expressions on commands, that the regex.s
operate only on the command text after the * or \ prefix, if any.
