Name specifies whether the program requires a filename as an argument? U/D specifies whether a given row specifies an upload protocol (U) ordownload protocol (D)? FullScr specifies whether the program runs in its own window? IO-Red.specifies whether the program obtains its input from the standardinput stream and directs its output to the standard output stream?
