                   THE COMPUTER IS ALWAYS PREDICTABLE

It ALWAYS chooses the same "default" when it fills in a particular
parameter for a particular command.  In our (make-believe) example, it
might substitute 45 for "width" and 165 for "depth".  But it will
ALWAYS put in 45 for "width".  It will ALWAYS put in 165 for "depth".

The "default" values MIGHT BE exactly what you need in a command.  If
so, then you can save yourself the trouble of typing in values for them.
Just be sure those "default" values really are what you want.  And be
sure the punctuation is correct.

                 IT PAYS TO LEARN THE "DEFAULT" VALUES
                     FOR ANY COMMAND YOU USE OFTEN

You will find them in the same place you find out about EVERY parameter
for any MPE/iX command:  in the HELP program.  You can also look in your
manual for MPE/iX Commands.

                 This time, let's pick a real command.
                Let's use one that you've used already.
