| #### Keyword Some commands (e.g. `HEADERMOD, STATUS`) use positionally independent TAG=VALUE syntax. Tags are explained in the explain files of commands that support this feature. NeXtMidas summarizes the commands it recognizes in a text dictionary. The dictionary format supports keyword-named-parameters as a general feature of the language. The NeXtMidas dictionary is `commands.cnf`. As the central repository for parameter names and default values, the NeXtMidas command dictionary eliminates the need to search primitive source code to determine command-specific conventions.
