displays information on any adjustment that matches
the adjustment name, regardless of the language for

/BRIEF
Causes LSE to display (in tabular format) the alias name and equivalent string. If you specify a wildcard expression for the parameter or if LSE assumes one, /BRIEF is the default.
/FULL
Causes LSE to display the alias name and equivalent string in list format. If you specify an explicit name for the parameter, /FULL is the default.

Specifies all buffers to be displayed when a wildcard buffer name is specified or assumed. LSE ignores this qualifier if you specify an explicit buffer name.
/BRIEF
Causes the current window to display (in tabular format) the name, number of text lines, and information about whether the buffer is modified, compiled, reviewed, or modifiable. If you move the cursor to a line containing a buffer name and press the Select key, LSE performs a GOTO BUFFER command for that buffer. If you move the cursor to a line containing a buffer name and press the Remove key, LSE performs a DELETE BUFFER command for that buffer. In DECwindows mode, you can perform a GOTO BUFFER for a buffer displayed in the list by pressing MB1 twice on the line containing the buffer name. If you specify a wildcard expression, or if LSE assumes one, /BRIEF is the default.
/FULL
Causes LSE to list all the information available about each indicated buffer, including associated input and output files, language, and all the buffer attributes that you can set, such as margins and text-entry mode. If you specify an explicit buffer, /FULL is the default.
