Table 69 Coding rules for user scripts
RulesApplicable items
• The character code set must be ASCII.
• Codes lower than 0x20 cannot be used, except for CR (0x0d), LF (0x0a),
and TAB (0x09).
• The linefeed code must be LF (0x0a) or CR+LF (0x0d and 0x0a).
• The length of a single line must not exceed 8 KB.
Overall user script
• Each line must contain only one item.
• Item and section names are not case-sensitive.
• Item and section names must consist of only one-byte characters. Two-byte
characters cannot be used.
• Item names must be separated by a one-byte equal sign (=). One-byte space
and tab characters can be inserted before and after equal signs.
Item and section names
• The value of an item must be specified after the one-byte equal sign (=) that
follows the item name. Do not enter a linefeed code between an item's name
and value.
• The item value begins after the one-byte equal sign (=) that follows the item
name and ends at the linefeed code.
• If an item name is specified alone (without a value), an error results.
Item values
• A line that begins with a one-byte hash mark (#) is regarded as a comment
line.
• If a one-byte hash mark (#) is entered anywhere on a line other than at the
beginning of the line, the part of the line following the hash mark will not be
regarded as a comment.
• If a hash mark (#) on a line is preceded by no characters other than tab and
space characters, the line will be regarded as a comment line.
Comments
• You can enter blank lines.
• A line that consists only of tab and one-byte space characters is regarded as
a blank line.
