B Full Specifications of all Smurf Commands

These pages describe all the Smurf commands in detail. Default values for parameters are quoted in square brackets. Empty brackets indicate a dynamic default will be calculated and inserted at run time. Parameters for which an array should be supplied (or are returned) are shown with parentheses after the parameter name. A number within those parentheses indicates the size of the array.
