these items exactly as shown. Items not enclosed in brackets are required. For
example:

MAXATTACH

lowercase italic letters. Lowercase italic letters indicate variable items that you supply.

Items not enclosed in brackets are required. For example:

file-name

[ ] Brackets. Brackets enclose optional syntax items. For example:

TERM [\system-name.]$terminal-name

INT[ERRUPTS]

A group of items enclosed in brackets is a list from which you can choose one item or
none. The items in the list may be arranged either vertically, with aligned brackets on
each side of the list, or horizontally, enclosed in a pair of brackets and separated by
vertical lines. For example:

FC [ num ]

[ -num]
