Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of text styles that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "Run QTiles, creating a new mytiles tileset with a minimum zoom of 14 and maximum of 16."

A block of code is set as follows:

[..] > cd c:\packt\c4\data\output
c:\packt\c4\data\output>java -jar osm2po-5.0.0\osm2po-core-5.0.0-signed.jar cmd=tj
sp newark_osm.osm

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

cd C:\packt\c6\data\web
python -m CGIHTTPServer 8000

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "Navigate to Layer | Open attribute table."
