Command Mode

Together with the program call, you enter any options and then exactly one command.

The system executes this command and then ends the program.

Session Mode

First you just call the program.

You can now enter and execute commands in succession without the program being ended.

To exit session mode, you end the program.

Script Mode

You enter the name of a script file that contains the commands to be executed when you call the program.

The program executes the script in the background.
