Ellipses

Ellipses in syntax examples indicate that parameters, options, or settings can be repeated.

For example, in the command

LOGIN SERVER1/SUPERVISOR /option...

you could replace option with any number of available options.

Emphasis

Italic type also indicates emphasized text. For example:

Remember to load the driver before you install the application.

Key Names

Angle brackets surround the name of a key. For example, <Enter> corresponds to the Enter key on your keyboard. <Ctrl>+<c> means hold down the Ctrl key and simultaneously type the letter c (in lowercase, in this case).
