+  ///1DEVICE
+
+  Syntax:
+
+          DEVICE { NAMES | VALUES | physical-dev | logical-dev}
+          DEVICE logical-dev=physical-dev {option}
+                                       {,physical-dev {option},...}
+          DEVICE logical-dev = NULL
+          DEVICE physical-dev {option}
+          DEVICE CONSOLE [ PAGE | COLUMNS = columns | LINES = lines]
+
+  Explanation:
+
+  DEVICE displays current logical device assignments  and  physical
+  device  names.  DEVICE  assigns  logical  devices  to  peripheral
+  devices  attached  to  the  computer.   DEVICE  also   sets   the
+  communications  protocol  and  speed  of a peripheral device, and
+  displays or sets the current console screen size.
+
+  ///2Options
+
+              [ XON | NOXON | baud-rate ]
+
+  XON         refers to  the   XON/XOFF   communications  protocol.
+
+  NOXON       indicates no protocol and the computer  sends data to
+              the  device  whether  or  not  the device is ready to
+              receive it.
+
+  baud-rate   is the    speed   of   the    device.    The   system
+              accepts the following baud rates:
+
+                      50       75         110        134
+                      150      300        600        1200
+                      1800     2400       3600       4800
+                      7200     9600       19200
+
+  ///2Examples
+
+  A>DEVICE
+
+       Displays the physical devices and   current  assignments  of
+       the logical devices in the system.
+
+  A>DEVICE NAMES
+
+       Lists the physical devices with a   summary  of  the  device
+       characteristics.
+
+  A>DEVICE VALUES
+
+       Displays  the  current  logical  device assignments.
+
+  A>DEVICE CRT
+
+       Displays the attributes  of  the  physical device CRT.
+
+  A>DEVICE CON
+
+       Displays the  assignment  of  the  logical device CON:
+
+  A>DEVICE CONOUT:=LPT,CRT
+
+       Assigns  the  system   console    output  (CONOUT:)  to  the
+       printer (LPT) and the screen (CRT).
+
+  A>DEVICE AUXIN:=CRT2 [XON,9600]
+
+       Assigns the auxiliary logical input   device   (AUXIN:)   to
+       the   physical   device   CRT   using  protocol XON/XOFF and
+       sets the transmission rate for the device  at  9600.
+
+  A>DEVICE LST:=NULL
+
+       Disconnects the list output logical device (LST:).
+
+  A>DEVICE LPT [XON,9600]
+
+       Sets  the  XON/XOFF  protocol  for  the physical device  LPT
+       and sets the transmission speed at 9600.
+
+  A>DEVICE CONSOLE [PAGE]
+
+       Displays the current console  page  width  in  columns   and
+       length in lines.
+
+  A>DEVICE CONSOLE [COLUMNS=40 LINES=16]
+
+       Sets the screen size to 40 columns and 16 lines.
