CERTCOM interaction

Use HELP to browse syntax, HISTORY to list previous input, FC to edit a previous command, PAGESIZE to control display paging, and EXIT to leave CERTCOM. The following commands illustrate separate interface actions, not an ordered procedure:
HELP
HELP <command> <object>
HISTORY 20
FC <command-number>
PAGESIZE 24
EXIT
