Documentation conventions
This manual uses the following standard documentation conventions:
Convention Meaning
Monospace text Represents text that appears on your computer’s screen, or that could
appear on your computer’s screen.
Boldface text Represents characters that you enter exactly as shown (unless the
characters are also in
italics —see Italics , below). Command
names used in text appear in boldface.
Italics In command usage, italic represent variable information. Do not enter
the words themselves in the command. Enter the information they
represent. In ordinary text, italics are used for titles of publications, for
some terms that would otherwise be in quotation marks, and to show
emphasis.
[ ] Square brackets indicate an optional argument you might add to a
command. To include such an argument, type only the information
inside the brackets. Do not type the brackets unless they appear in bold
type.
| Separates command choices that are mutually exclusive.
Key1-Key2 Represents a combination keystroke. To enter a combination
keystroke, press the first key and hold it down while you press one or
more other keys. Release all the keys at the same time. (For example,
Ctrl-H means hold down the Control key and press the H key.)
Press Enter Means press the Enter, or Return, key or its equivalent on your
computer.
Note: Introduces important additional information.
