[Figure]

Conventions: Fonts and symbols

Font and symbol conventions are classified as:

These conventions are described below.

General font conventions

The following table lists the general font conventions:

Font Convention
Bold Bold type indicates text on a window, other than the window title. Such text includes menus, menu options, buttons, radio box options, or explanatory labels. For example, bold is used in sentences such as the following:
  • From the File menu, choose Open.
  • Click the Cancel button.
  • In the Enter name entry box, type your name.
Italics Italics are used to indicate a placeholder for some actual text provided by the user or system. Italics are also used for emphasis. For example:
  • Write the command as follows:
    copy source-file target-file
  • Do not delete the configuration file.
Code font A code font indicates text that the user enters without change, or text (such as messages) output by the system. For example:
  • At the prompt, enter dir.
  • Use the send command to send mail.
  • The following message is displayed:
    The password is incorrect.

Examples of coding and messages appear as follows (although there may be some exceptions, such as when coding is included in a diagram):

MakeDatabase
...
StoreDatabase temp DB32

In examples of coding, an ellipsis (...) indicates that one or more lines of coding are not shown for purposes of brevity.

Conventions in syntax explanations

Syntax definitions appear as follows:

StoreDatabase [temp|perm] (database-name ...)

The following table lists the conventions used in syntax explanations:

Example font or symbol Convention
StoreDatabase Code-font characters must be entered exactly as shown.
database-name This font style marks a placeholder that indicates where appropriate characters are to be entered in an actual command.
SD Bold code-font characters indicate the abbreviation for a command.
Perm Underlined characters indicate the default value.
[ ] Square brackets enclose an item or set of items whose specification is optional.
| Only one of the options separated by a vertical bar can be specified at the same time.
... An ellipsis (...) indicates that the item or items enclosed in ( ) or [ ] immediately preceding the ellipsis may be specified as many times as necessary.
() Parentheses indicate the range of items to which the vertical bar (|) or ellipsis (...) is applicable.

Conventions for mathematical expressions

This manual uses the following symbols in mathematical expressions:

Symbol Meaning
x Multiplication sign
/ Division sign
[Figure] [Figure] The calculation result is rounded up to the next whole number.
Example:
The result of [Figure] 34 / 3[Figure] is 12.
[Figure]
(tilde)		 The item shown before this symbol must be specified in accordance with the conventions shown for angle brackets, double parentheses, and double angle brackets (below).
< >
(angle brackets)		 Indicates the characters and lexical elements that can be specified.

<characters>
One or more Kanji characters, katakana characters, upper-case alphabetic characters, lower-case alphabetic characters, or numeric characters

<numeric>
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9

<alphabetic character>
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, \, #, or @

<alphanumeric character>
Alphabetic or numeric character

<symbolic name>
No more than eight alphanumeric characters beginning with an alphabetic character

<unsigned integer>
One or more numeric characters

<hexadecimal character>
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, or F

<file name>
A system-determined name assigned to a file

<path>
The directories contained in the path, with each name separated by a forward slash (/) or backslash (\). The path notation is OS-dependent.
(( ))
(double parentheses)		 Indicates the range of specifiable values.
<< >>
(double angle brackets)		 Indicates the default assumed by the system when a value is unspecified.
Example:
If you do not specify days-to-keep-form ~<numeric> ((0 to 365)) <<365>>, 365 is assumed as the number of days to keep the form.
MAX Choose the largest of the calculation results.
Example:
The result of MAX (3 x 6, 4 + 7) is 18.

Conventions: KB, MB, GB, and TB

This manual uses the following conventions:

Conventions: Meaning of "directory" and "folder"

As a general rule, Windows folder names are used in this manual if they are identical to UNIX directory names.

Conventions: Meaning of "member of the Administrators group"

The term member of the Administrators group in this manual refers to a user who is a member of the Administrators group on the local PC only. The privileges of local users, domain users, and Active Directory users are no different as long as these users are members of the Administrators group on the local PC.

Conventions: Version numbers

The version numbers of Hitachi program products are usually written as two sets of two digits each, separated by a hyphen. For example:

The version number might be shown on the spine of a manual as Ver. 2.00, but the same version number would be written in the program as 02-00.

Regular expressions available in JP1/AJS3

Regular expressions can be used in some items in dialog boxes and commands. For details about regular expressions in Windows, see the Job Management Partner 1/Base User's Guide. For details about regular expressions in UNIX, see your UNIX documentation.

The regular expressions that you can use when executing an event job on a Windows host depend on the JP1/Base settings. For details on setting regular expressions for event job execution, see the explanation about extending the available regular expressions in the Job Management Partner 1/Base User's Guide.

Searching may take a long time if you often use the regular expression .* (which means match any character or characters). In long messages, use .* only where necessary. In UNIX, you can use [^ ]* (repeat characters other than space characters) instead of .* when you want to find a match other than space characters. Using [^ ]* reduces the search time.
