more values can be specified as individual (command line) arguments.
more values can be specified as individual (command line) arguments. Beware of
the possibility of pathname expansion by the shell. For this reason, slashed
square brackets or quoted parameters is advisable.
To get the list of configuration sections or to get the list of section items::
