Description
Screen displays
This typeface represents information as it appears on
the screen.
Commands
The word “command” means that you must enter the
command exactly as shown and then press Return or
Enter. Commands appear in bold. Example:
To exit, enter the following command:
logout
When using the command line interface, only the first
few letters of each command need to be typed (the
letters that make the command unique from the other
commands). For example, you can enter
l
to exit the
command line interface, instead of typing the whole
command.
The words “enter”
and “type”
When you see the word “enter” in this guide, you
must type something, and then press Return or Enter.
Do not press Return or Enter when an instruction
simply says “type.”
Keyboard key names
If you must press two or more keys simultaneously, the
key names are linked with a plus sign (+). Example:
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del
Words in italics
Italics are used to:
■
Emphasize a point.
■
Denote a new term at the place where it is defined
in the text.
■
Identify menu names, menu commands, and
software button names. Examples:
From the Help menu, select Contents.
Click OK.
