Conventions
This section describes the formatting conventions used throughout the documentation.
Convention | Meaning |
|---|---|
Bold | Bold formats literal text, i.e., commands, keywords, or options that must be entered exactly as displayed. For example: dactions -save [ filename ] |
italics | Italics format parameter values entered by the user, for example: dactions -save myFile |
[ ] | Brackets describe optional parts of a command. For example, in this command, both -g and -r are optional parameters: dattach [-g gid] [-r hname ] |
{ } | Curly braces wrap a group of entries where exactly one choice is required. For example, in this command, if you provide the -c parameter, you must provide a parameter value: dattach [ -c { core-file | recording-file } ] |
| | A vertical bar identifies a choice, for example, provide either a core-file or a recording-file: dattach [ -c { core-file | recording-file } ] |
Monospace | Example code or a response to a shell or CLI prompt |
