Command Syntax: 
 
  - )show nameOrAbbrev
  - )show nameOrAbbrev )operations
  - )show nameOrAbbrev )attributes
 
Command Description: 
This command displays information about AXIOM domain, package and category
constructors. If no options are given, the )operations option is assumed. For
example,
 
)show POLY
)show POLY )operations
)show Polynomial
)show Polynomial )operations
 
each display basic information about the Polynomial domain constructor and
then provide a listing of operations. Since Polynomial requires a Ring (for
example, Integer) as argument, the above commands all refer to a unspecified
ring R. In the list of operations, $ means Polynomial(R).
 
The basic information displayed includes the signature of the constructor
(the name and arguments), the constructor abbreviation, the exposure status
of the constructor, and the name of the library source file for the
constructor.
 
If operation information about a specific domain is wanted, the full or
abbreviated domain name may be used. For example,
 
)show POLY INT
)show POLY INT )operations
)show Polynomial Integer
)show Polynomial Integer )operations
 
are among the combinations that will display the operations exported by the
domain Polynomial(Integer) (as opposed to the general domain constructor
Polynomial). Attributes may be listed by using the )attributes option.
