Hi Di Wang,

On vxWorks you can also use the iocsh shell, and then you can run the same "help" commands that you run on other operating systems.

At the vxWorks prompt type:

iocsh

You will then be in the iocsh shell.

To return to the vxWorks shell type "exit".

You can also run iocsh in your st.cmd.

Mark

Subject: The help command for VxWorks shell
 
Hello all,

I always use `help pattern⋆` command on iocsh to list and search iocsh
commands, but this does not work on the VxWorks shell.

The `lkup` command provided by VxWorks will search all symbols and is
sometimes not very convenient. So I am wondering is there any similar
method on VxWorks shell to list and search all registered ioc commands?

Cheers,
Di Wang
