NAME

       fstrace_help - Displays help for fstrace commands

SYNOPSIS

       fstrace help [-topic <help string>+] [-help]

       fstrace h [-t <help string>+] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The fstrace help command displays the complete online help entry (short
       description and syntax statement) for each command operation code
       specified by the -topic argument. If the -topic argument is omitted,
       the output includes the first line (name and short description) of the
       online help entry for every fstrace command.

       To list every fstrace command whose name or short description includes
       a specified keyword, use the fstrace apropos command.

OPTIONS

       -topic <help string>+
           Indicates each command for which to display the complete online
           help entry. Omit the fstrace part of the command name, providing
           only the operation code (for example, specify clear, not fstrace
           clear). If this argument is omitted, the output briefly describes
           every fstrace command.

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
           are ignored.

OUTPUT

       The online help entry for each fstrace command consists of two or three
       lines:

       ·   The first line names the command and briefly describes its
           function.

       ·   The second line lists aliases for the command, if any.

       ·   The final line, which begins with the string "Usage", lists the
           command’s options in the prescribed order. Online help entries use
           the same symbols (for example, brackets) as the reference pages in
           this document.

EXAMPLES

       The following command displays the online help entry for the fstrace
       setset command:

          % fstrace help -topic setset
          fstrace setset: set state of event sets
          Usage: fstrace setset [-set <set_name>+] [-active] [-inactive]
          [-dormant] [-help]
