2 caption = list of commands
4 purpose = list commands or keybindings, or print command-specific help
5 non-opts-name = [command]
8 This command acts differently depending on whether it is executed in
9 command mode or in insert mode.
11 In command mode, the help command prints the list of defined
12 keybindings. In insert mode, if no argument is given, it prints the
13 list of available commands. When called with the name of a command
14 as first argument, it prints the description of this command.

28 purpose = load the previous file of the playlist
31 purpose = enter insert mode

62 The output contains the playlist position, the path
63 and information provided by the audio format handler.

70 If no argument is given, playback starts at the current
71 position. Otherwise, the corresponding file is loaded
72 and playback is started at the beginning of the file.

78 When paused, it is still possible to jump around in
79 the file via the jmp and ff commands.
83 purpose = print list of active tasks
85 Mainly useful for debugging.
89 purpose = exit para_play
