Documentation Conventions
This manual uses several type styles and special characters:
Convention Use
bold Represents commands, command options, and file entries. Type
bold words exactly as they appear (for example, net use).
italic Introduces new terms and represents variables. For example,
the variable computername indicates that you type the name
of a workstation or a server.
Represents examples, screen displays, and error messages.
ALL
CAPITALS
Represents filenames and paths. You can, however, type
entries in uppercase or lowercase letters, or a combination of
the two.
SMALL
CAPITALS
Represents key names (for example, CTRL, ENTER, and F2).
KEY+KEY Indicates that you press two keys at the same time. You must
hold down the first key while you press the second. For
example, Press
CTRL+Z means to hold down CTRL while you
press
Z.
{braces} Encloses required items in syntax statements. For example,
{yes | no} indicates that you must specify yes or no when
using the command. Type only the information within the
braces, not the braces themselves.
[brackets] Encloses optional items in syntax statements. For example,
[password] indicates that you can choose to type a password
with the command. Type only the information within the
brackets, not the brackets themselves.
| (vertical bar) Stands for “or” and separates items within braces or brackets.
For example, {/hold | /release | /delete} indicates that you
must type /hold or /release or /delete.
... (ellipsis) Indicates that you can repeat the previous item(s) in syntax
statements. For example, /route:devicename[,...] indicates that
you can specify more than one device, putting commas
between the devicenames.
Û Indicates a procedure.
