Notes:
-
The CLI commands are still handled by the MI interpreter; their
output is described below.
-
The
token, when present, is passed back when the command
finishes.
-
Some MI commands accept optional arguments as part of the parameter
list. Each option is identified by a leading `-' (dash) and may be
followed by an optional argument parameter. Options occur first in the
parameter list and can be delimited from normal parameters using
`--' (this is useful when some parameters begin with a dash).
Pragmatics:
-
We want easy access to the existing CLI syntax (for debugging).
-
We want it to be easy to spot a MI operation.
