<title>Formatting Conventions</title>
<para>Some items are formatted differently from other text, like
<filename>filenames</filename>, <command>commands</command>, and
<literal>literal values</literal>.</para>
<screen>$ echo Terminal sessions are formatted with line folding for easier reading.
In the HTML version, double-click to toggle between the folded version and
the flat, copy-paste version. &gt; /dev/null</screen>
<para>In many cases, sections pertaining to UNIX, GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, BSD,
and so forth are marked (UNIX). Sections pertaining to Microsoft Windows
might be marked (Windows). To avoid repetition, however, file system
directory names are often given only in UNIX format as in
<filename>/path/to/openidm</filename>, even if the text applies to
<filename>C:\path\to\openidm</filename> as well.</para>
<programlisting language='java'>class Test
{
public static void main(String [] args)
{
System.out.println("This is a program listing.");
}
}</programlisting>
