section of system-specific information. The beginning
of a system-specific section is identified in the text or

.
A vertical ellipsis indicates the omission of items from
a code example or command format; the items are
omitted because they are not important to the topic
being discussed. Most program examples are shown
in HP terminal format, rather than in ANSI standard
format.
quotation mark The quotation mark is used to refer to the double
quotation mark character ( " ).
apostrophe The apostrophe is used to refer to the single quotation
mark character ( ’ ).
