Prompt Style — This manual may present displays and prompt lines
differently than they appear on your screen. Enter the commands shown
in this manual at the equivalent prompt as shown on your screen.
Commands — Commands do not include a notation to enter the
command with the Return key. When the manual describes an operating
system command, assume that a Return is required to enter the
command.
A c ommand line which normally appears as one line on a
screen may be too long to fit as one line in this manual.
However, whenever possible, always enter the command as
one line on the screen.
