DESCRIPTION
           ELSE is part of the IF .. ELSE ... ENDIF statement that can be
     used in script files. If the IF test fails the instructions between the
     test and the ELSE keyword are skipped but the instructions between the
     ELSE and ENDIF keywords are executed.
           If the IF test succeeds, the instruction between IF and ELSE are
     executed after what the instructions between ELSE and ENDIF are skipped.
     In both case the script file resumes normally after the ENDIF keyword.
     ELSE is always tied to the last (uncompleted) IF encountered in the
     script files.

SEE ALSO
     IF, ENDIF
