Command/Function Sensitive Help

 

* Use the [Ctrl+Alt+Shift+C] key combination to copy the highlighted command to windows clipboard. If the copied command wraps over multiple lines with continuation characters, the pluses "+" will be removed at the end of each line. This allows users to easily paste [Ctrl+V] the command at the R> Prompt to execute and test the command. This is different than the regular copy command which will not remove the "+" at the end of each line when pasted at the R> Prompt.
