Documentation conventions
Following are all the special characters and typographical conventions used in this manual:
Convention Meaning
Monospace text Represents text that appears on your computer’s screen, or that could
appear on your computer’s screen.
Boldface mono-
space text
Represents characters that you enter exactly as shown (unless the char-
acters are also in italics—see Italics, below). If you could enter
the characters but are not specifically instructed to, they do not appear
in boldface.
Italics 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.
