Conventions

This manual uses the following formats to describe, identify, and highlight

terms and operating procedures.

Abbreviations

On first appearance, and whenever necessary for clarity, abbreviations are

enclosed in parentheses following their definition. For example: Read Only

Memory (ROM). Acronyms are also defined in the Glossary.

Icons

Icons identify ports, dials, and other parts of your computer. The indicator

panel also uses icons to identify the components it is providing information

on.

Keys

The keyboard keys are used in the text to describe many computer

operations. A distinctive typeface identifies the key top symbols as they

appear on the keyboard. For example, Enter identifies the Enter key.

Key operation

Some operations require you to simultaneously use two or more keys.

We identify such operations by the key top symbols separated by a plus

sign (+). For example, Ctrl + C means you must hold down Ctrl and at the

same time press C. If three keys are used, hold down the first two and at

the same time press the tddhird.

DISKCOPY A: B:

When procedures require an action such as

clicking an icon or entering text, the icon's name

or the text you are to type in is represented in the

type face you see to the left.
