# List

This command lists the entities in an uncompiled (source) XML Eduction grammar file or a compiled ECR grammar file. Listing the contents of an XML file lists all entities in the file, both private and public. Listing the contents of a compiled ECR file lists all public entities.

NOTE: The compiled ECR file does not include any private entities that are not referenced by the public entities.

To enable this feature, type `edktool l <grammarfile>` at the command line.

The following table describes the optional parameters for this command.

`-a` | List the license requirements for a particular compiled grammar file, as well as the components that the entity can return. For example, the following output: `category: place languages: English or French` indicates that the user must be licensed for either English or French in the place category. If multiple lines appear, then the license must satisfy the conditions in every line.
`-q` | Run in quiet mode. In this case, `edktool` removes all descriptive messages from the output and shows the entity list only. The output includes components if you also set the `-a` parameter.

## Example

To list all public entities in the compiled grammar file `mygrammar.ecr`:

    edktool list mygrammar.ecr
