• Monospace italic represents terms to be replaced by literal values. In the
following example, the user must replace the monospace-italic term with a literal
value. For example:
The nmtr program has the following syntax (where filename is the name of
the file to be converted).
• Monospace bold represents user input in examples and figures that contain both
user input and system output (which appears in monospace). For example:
[root@ftlinux8 sinap_sip_master]# ls -l /usr/lib/libsip*
• Italics introduces or defines new terms. For example:
The Terminal Handler accepts commands in Man-Machine Language (MML).
• Boldface emphasizes words in text. For example:
You must create a link set before you provision its member links.
• When you need to press a key on the keyboard to perform an action, the keys are
indicated in SMALL CAPS, for example:
Press CTRL P to go to the next page or ENTER to exit the screen.
NOTE
There is an implied pressing of ENTER at the end of each
command and menu response that you enter.
• The dollar sign ($) and the number sign (#) are standard default prompt signs that
have a specific meaning at the UNIX prompt. Although a prompt is sometimes
shown at the beginning of a command line as it would appear on the screen, you
do not type it.
• $ indicates that you are logged in to a user account and are subject to certain
access limitations.
• # indicates that you are logged in to the system administrator account and
have superuser access. Users of this account are referred to as root. The #
prompt sign used in an example indicates the command can only be issued by
root.
• When the full path name of a command appears in an example (for example,
/etc/fsck), you must enter the command exactly as it appears.
• When the text that would appear on a single line on the screen is too long to fit in
the space available on a line in the document, a slash (\) is used as a
line-continuation character.
