Some command line switches depend on other command line switches. You??™ll see the command
line switches nested within multiple layers of square brackets in this situation. For example, if you
want to supply a password for logging into a remote system to view the tasks running on it, you must
also supply the
/System
and
/Username
command line switches.
In other cases, command line switches are mutually exclusive. The command line separates
these switches with the pipe (
|
) symbol. The
TaskList
command won??™t allow you to use the
/M
command line switch with the /
SVC
switch; you must select one or the other.
After the usage information, you??™ll normally see a description section for newer commands. The
description tells you what task the command performs and why you would want to use it. Sometimes
this information is quite complete, as it is with the
TaskList
command, and in other cases, you??™ll still
be scratching your head after you read the description. Older commands don??™t provide a description
at all; you just have to know what task they perform, which is why many people don??™t use them.
A description of the individual parameters (or arguments and inputs) comes next.
