In descriptions and explanations of commands, a bold font indicates thename of commands and parameters, for example, /c0/p0 show all. In commands, an italic font indicates items that are variable, but that youmust specify, such as a controller ID, or a unit ID, for example, /c0/p0show attribute, and /cx/px show all In commands, brackets around an item indicates that it is optional. In commands, ellipses (...) indicate that more than one parameter at a timecan be included, for example, /c0/p0 show attribute [attribute ...], or thatthere is a range between two values from which you can pick a value, forexample, /cx set carvesize=[1024...2048].
