• C and Open System Services (OSS) keywords, commands, and reserved words. Type
these items exactly as shown. Items not enclosed in brackets are required. For example:
Use the cextdecs.h header file.
• Text displayed by the computer. For example:
Last Logon: 14 May 2006, 08:02:23
• A listing of computer code. For example
if (listen(sock, 1) < 0)
{
perror("Listen Error");
exit(-1);
}

A group of items enclosed in brackets is a list from which you can choose one item or none.
The items in the list can be arranged either vertically, with aligned brackets on each side of

FC [ num ]
[ -num ]
[ text ]
K [ X | D ] address

LISTOPENS PROCESS { $appl-mgr-name }
{ $process-name }
ALLOWSU { ON | OFF }
