Conventions
We use the following typographical conventions:
audit (5)
An HP-UX or Tru64 UNIX reference page. The term audit is the name and the number 5
is the section in the HP-UX Reference or the Tru64 UNIX Reference. On the web and on
the Instant Information CD, it may be a hot link to the reference page itself. From the
HP-UX command line, you can enter "man audit" or "man 5 audit" to view the
reference page. See man(1).
Book Title
The title of a book. On the web and on the Instant Information CD, it may be a hot link to
the book itself.
KeyCap
The name of a keyboard key. Note that Return and Enter both refer to the same key.
Emphasis
Text that is emphasized
Emphasis
Text that is strongly emphasized.
Term
The defined use of an important word or phrase.
ComputerOut
Text displayed by the computer
User Input
Commands and other text that you type.
Command
A command name or qualified command phrase.
Variable
The name of a variable that you may replace in a command or function or information in a
display that represents several possible values.
[]
The contents are required in formats and command descriptions.
{}
The contents are required in formats and command descriptions. If the contents are a list
separated by |, you must choose one of the items The name of a variable that you may
replace in a command or function or information in a display that represents several
possible values.
...
The preceding element may be repeated an arbitrary number of times. This convention is
also when used when a portion of computer is omitted because it is irrelevant to the topic
discussed.
|
Separates items in a list of choices.
