For more detailed information on WATCH qualifiers, refer to the chapter on commands in this manual.

You can press CTRL-C or CTRL-Z or type EXIT to terminate a WATCH session.

You can enter "HELP WATCH" at the DCL command level if the WATCH help text was added into the system help library, or "HELP @WATCH" if it was added into a private, user help library.
