We can get the list of all the available commands.
Most users of ecFlow will be happy to use ecflowviewGUI, but some things cannot be done using ecflowviewGUI. Note also that most of the commands that you execute using ecflowview GUI are actually CLI commands and that you can execute CLI commands in ecflowview's collector window.
CLI is command line based, which means it reads your commands a line at the time.
The very first argument to 'ecflow_client' must begin with '–'
