Notations and Conventions
- Enter refers to the carriage return or Enter key. Where commands to
be typed are shown, the Enter key is not explicitly shown; it is treated as
implicit that Enter must be pressed at the end of the line.
- Keytops and menu choices are emboldened within the text.
- In some environments, you might notice that what appears on your screen
differs in minor ways (for example, version numbers) from that illustrated in
this book. This will not affect the operation of your software.
- The keys described in this book are not available in all environments.Some
keystrokes using function keys or the Alt or Ctrl keys are not available on all
UNIX platforms. The Server Express User Guide contains the
appendix UNIX
Key Usage Chart, listing how the keystrokes shown in the books map onto
actual keystrokes.
The notation used to describe the format of command lines is as follows:
- Words printed in italics are generic terms representing names to be devised
by you.
- Material enclosed in square brackets [ ] is optional.
- When material is enclosed in braces { }, you must choose from the options
within them. If there is only one option in the braces, the braces indicate
repetition.
- The ellipsis (. . .) follows { } or [ ] and means you can repeat the
material in the { } or [ ]. The number of repetitions allowed is unlimited
unless otherwise stated. If the ellipsis is used with [ ] the material can be
omitted altogether.
- If a command line does not fit across the page, it is continued on the next
line; the continuation line is indented.
- Command line options can be specified as /option or -option.
