Change Bar Notation
Change bars are used to indicate substantive differences between this manual and its
preceding version. Change bars are vertical rules placed in the right margin of
changed portions of text, figures, tables, examples, and so on. Change bars highlight
new or revised information. For example:

old message types. In the CRE, the message type SYSTEM includes all
messages except LOGICAL-CLOSE and LOGICAL-OPEN.
