Following the heading, the full form of the cornrnand is given, using the ASCII names for control codes, eg <ESC> (the angle brackets on either side of the name are not part of the name, being simply delimiters, and should not be entered). Variable parameters am indicated by a letter (usually “n”), and an optional number, enclosed in angle brackets (eg <no>). Where an indefinite number of parameters are to be supplied, the <n>s are separated by an ellipsis (,‘.. .“). The sequence is then given using hexadecimal codes (two hexadecimal digits followed by a lowercase “h”), with variables again represented by letters enclosed in angle brackets. The decimal equivalent follows the hexadecimal. The following is an example:
