570.0. "COMMAND_SUMMARY" by MARTY::FRIEDMAN () Mon Jun 29 1987 12:37

    There used to be a command_summary available in the software templates.
    It allowed you to present a condensed list/description of commands.
    Is this template or equivalent available in BL7 or beyond?
    
    Thanks.

    It is not documented in BL7 and beyond; we didn't use it for
    V1.0 because there didn't seem to be much call, and it took
    a lot of tags. (Supporting it the way we did in the LAYERED and
    VMS.UTILITY doctypes in BL6 and earlier.) The tag <COMMAND_SUMMARY>
    is present, but it's buggy. Will try to get into a future release.
    
    Note that all the tags did was, in essence, to generate a simple
    two-column table, but the table didn't have a number, so we had
    to fudge the table macros to get the heading to print on overflow
    pages.
