Document Conventions Used in This Guide
Monospaced Font
Monospaced font is used for any text that appears on the computer screen or text that you should type. It is also used for file names, distinguished names, functions, and examples.
Bold Monospaced Font
Bold monospaced font is used to represent text within a code example that you should type. For example, you might see something like this:
./pssetup
*******************************************************************
Sun(TM) One Portal Server (6.0 release)
*******************************************************************
Installation log at /var/sadm/install/logs/ipsinstall.13343/install.log
This product will run without a license. However, you must either purchase a Binary Code License from, or accept the terms of a Binary Software Evaluation license with, Sun Microsystems, to legally use this product.
Do you accept? yes/[no] Starting install wizard in graphical mode
In this example, ./pssetup is what you would type from the command line and the rest is what would appear as a result.
Italicized Font
An italicized font is used to represent text that you enter using information that is unique to your installation (for example, variables). It is used for server paths and names and account IDs.
Square or Straight Brackets
Square (or straight) brackets [] are used to enclose optional parameters. For example, in the Sun ONE Portal Server documentation, you will see the usage for the dpadmin command described as follows:
dpadmin list|modify|add|remove [command-specific options]
The presence of [command-specific] indicates that there are optional parameters that may be added to the dpadmin command.
Command-Line Prompts
Command-line prompts (for example, % for a C-Shell, or $ for a Korn or Bourne shell) are not displayed in the examples. Depending on which operating system environment you are using, you will see a variety of different command-line prompts. However, you should enter the command as it appears in the document unless specifically noted otherwise.
