Notation Conventions

A group of items enclosed in braces is a list of all possible items that can be displayed,
of which one is actually displayed. The items in the list might be arranged either
vertically, with aligned braces on each side of the list, or horizontally, enclosed in a pair
of braces and separated by vertical lines. For example:

obj-type obj-name state changed to state, caused by

{ Object | Operator | Service }

process-name State changed from old-objstate to objstate

{ Operator Request. }

{ Unknown. }

| Vertical Line

A vertical line separates alternatives in a horizontal list that is enclosed in brackets or
braces. For example:

Transfer status: { OK | Failed }

% Percent Sign

A percent sign precedes a number that is not in decimal notation. The % notation
precedes an octal number. The %B notation precedes a binary number. The %H notation
precedes a hexadecimal number. For example:

%005400

P=%p-register E=%e-register
