 This mode is used to test whether two groups of values have the

 The variable given in the @cmd{GROUPS} subcommand is the independent
 variable which determines to which group the samples belong.
 The values in parentheses are the specific values of the independent
 variable for each group.
-In this mode, you must also use the @cmd{/VARIABLES} subcommand to
