Typographical conventions
The following typographical conventions are used in this manual:
■ Code font indicates ActionScript statements and literal text used in examples.
■ Code font italic indicates placeholder elements in code. For example,
attachAudio(source) means that you should specify your own value for the source
parameter.
■ Italic indicates placeholder elements in paths. For example, /settings/myPrinter/ means
that you should specify your own location for myPrinter.
■ Directory paths are written with forward slashes (/). If you are running Flash Media Server
on a Microsoft Windows operating system, replace the forward slashes with backslashes.
When a path is specific to the Microsoft Windows operating system, backslashes (\) are
used.
