Elements

An element is the basic structural unit in a library.  An element 
consists of a file and all its versions, called generations.  

An element name is the file name and type specified with the CMS
CREATE ELEMENT command.  When you retrieve an element from the
library, CMS places a copy of the element in your default directory.
Each time you replace an element in the library, CMS creates a new 
generation of that file.  

CMS can store any type of file except a directory file.

     (5)  HELP CMS REMOVE ELEMENT tells how to remove one or more
