Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

Code in text: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: “As can be seen in the code, the keyword EXTENDS Felion is added to the function block code.”

A block of code is set as follows:

//turn on motor
IF turnOnMotor = FALSE THEN
	turnOnMotor := TRUE;
END_IF

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

//turn on motor
IF turnOnMotor = FALSE THEN
	turnOnMotor := TRUE;
END_IF

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ mkdir css
$ cd css

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: “Select System info from the Administration panel.”
