The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software,

If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming,
you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully
out of date.

Syntax: command[arguments] [; command2 [arguments]]...
Arguments:
<command> A one-, two-, or three-character command name. The
<command> is not case sensitive; any combination of
uppercase and lowercase letters can be used.
<arguments> Expressions that represent values or addresses
used by the command. Source-level expressions used
as <arguments> may or may not be case sensitive.
The first argument can be placed immediately after
<command> with no space separating the two fields.
If a command takes more than one argument, you must
separate the arguments with spaces.
<command2> One or more additional commands on the same line. A
semicolon (;) must separate each command from the
next.
