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.)
