Typographical Conventions
The following list defines (where appropriate) and illustrates typographical
conventions used as visual cues for specific elements of text throughout this
document:
• Interface components are window titles, button and icon names, menu names
and selections, and other options that appear on the monitor screen or display.
They are presented in bold.
Example: Click OK.
• Keycaps, the labeling that appears on the keys on a keyboard, are enclosed in
angle brackets.
Example: <Enter>
• Key combinations are series of keys to be pressed simultaneously (unless
otherwise indicated) to perform a single function.
Example: <Ctrl><Alt><Enter>
• Commands presented in lowercase bold are for reference purposes only and are
not intended to be typed at that particular point in the discussion.
Example: “Use the setup command to . . . .”
In contrast, commands presented in the Courier New font are intended to be
typed as part of an instruction.
Example: “Type
format to format the diskette in drive A.”
• Filenames and directory names are presented in lowercase bold.
Examples: autoexec.bat and c:\windows
• Syntax lines consist of a command and all its possible parameters. Com-
mands are displayed in lowercase bold; variable parameters (those for which
you
substitute a value) are displayed in lowercase italics; constant parameters are
displayed in lowercase bold. The brackets indicate items that are optional.
Example: del [drive:] [[path]filename] [/p]
• Command lines consist of a command and may include one or more of the
command’s possible parameters. Command lines are presented in the Courier
New font.

del c:\myfile.doc
