The dbxtra help facility

The dbxtra help facility

Above the (dbxtra) prompt, Type help for help, is displayed. Help can be invoked in two ways, first by typing help at the prompt, a general list of dbxtra's commands are displayed. For a more detailed explanation of a specific command, invoke help with the dbxtra command name as an argument. For example:

   (dbxtra) help forward
   forward [n]
   backward [n]
   Scroll the source window forward and backward n lines 
   (the default is one window).
The screen's appearance may vary depending on your terminal type. dbxtra tries to take advantage of the emphasis modes available on each.
