code and programming examples.

section titles, and for other cross-references.

an optional function parameter or a
command line option.

column, or in a line) signifies that an item
may be repeated any number of times.
8Ah through 8Fh Hexadecimal values are denoted with a
lower-case ‘h’.
CONFIG.SYS Terminal file system or terminal-related
objects are shown in ALL CAPS.
[ALPHA] Keys on the Omni 3200 terminal keyboard
appear between square brackets.
UNIT SEND

Ariel
type font is used to identify
messages or prompts that appear on the
Omni 3200 display.
All C language source code characters are case sensitive. For example
fprint( ) and FPRINT( ) are different functions. All source code
punctuation must be included as shown.
