■ Conventions: Fonts and symbols

Font and symbol conventions are classified as:

General font conventions
Conventions in syntax explanations

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, and 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 the 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.`

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. If multiple items are enclosed, either omit them all or select one of them. Example: `[A]` means either nothing or `A` must be specified. `[B\|C]` means nothing, or `B`, or `C` must be specified.
`\|`	Only one of the options separated by a vertical bar can be specified at the same time. Example: `A\|B\|C` means `A`, or `B`, or `C`.
`...`	An ellipsis (`...`) indicates that the item or items enclosed in `( )` or `[` `]` immediately preceding the ellipsis may be specified as many times as necessary.

■ 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:

Version 1.00 (or 1.0) is written as 01-00.
Version 2.05 is written as 02-05.
Version 2.50 (or 2.5) is written as 02-50.
Version 12.25 is written as 12-25.

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.
