In this manual the personal pronoun @emph{we} is used to repesent

@emph{The CentOS Artwork SIG}, the group of people involved in

building the The CentOS Artworks Repository (@pxref{Authors}).

In this manual, certain words are represented in different fonts,

typefaces, sizes, and weights. This highlighting is systematic;

different words are represented in the same style to indicate their

inclusion in a specific category. The types of words that are

represented this way include the following:

@table @strong

@item @command{command}

Linux commands (and other operating system commands, when used) are

represented this way. This style should indicate to you that you can

type the word or phrase on the command line and press Enter to invoke

a command. Sometimes a command contains words that would be displayed

in a different style on their own (such as file names). In these

cases, they are considered to be part of the command, so the entire

phrase is displayed as a command. For example:

Use the @command{centos-art render path/to/dir} command to produce

contents inside the @file{trunk/Identity} directory structure.  

@item @file{file name}

File names, directory names, paths, and RPM package names are

represented this way. This style indicates that a particular file or

directory exists with that name on your system. Examples:

The @file{init.sh} file in @file{trunk/Scripts/Bash/Cli/} directory is

the initialization script, written in Bash, used to automate most of

tasks in the repository.

The @command{centos-art} command uses the @file{ImageMagick} RPM

package to convert images from PNG format to other formats.

@item @key{key}

A key on the keyboard is shown in this style. For example:

To use @key{TAB} completion to list particular files in a directory,

type @command{ls}, then a character, and finally the Tab key. Your

terminal displays the list of files in the working directory that

begin with that character.  

@item @key{key-combination}

A combination of keystrokes is represented in this way. For example:

The @key{Ctrl-Alt-Backspace} key combination exits your graphical

session and returns you to the graphical login screen or the console.

@item @code{computer output}

Text in this style indicates text displayed to a shell prompt such as

error messages and responses to commands. For example:

The @command{ls} command displays the contents of a directory. For example:

@verbatim

Config                          help_renameEntry.sh

help_copyEntry.sh               help_restoreCrossReferences.sh

help_deleteCrossReferences.sh   help_searchIndex.sh

@end verbatim

The output returned in response to the command (in this case, the

contents of the directory) is shown in this style.

@end table

Additionally, we use several different strategies to draw your

attention to certain pieces of information. In order of urgency, these

items are marked as a note, tip, important, caution, or warning. For

example:

@quotation

@strong{Note} Remember that Linux is case sensitive. In other words, a

rose is not a ROSE is not a rOsE. 

@end quotation

@quotation

@strong{Tip} The directory @file{/usr/share/doc/} contains additional

documentation for packages installed on your system. 

@end quotation

@quotation

@strong{Important} If you modify the DHCP configuration file, the

changes do not take effect until you restart the DHCP daemon. 

@end quotation

@quotation

@strong{Caution} Do not perform routine tasks as root --- use a

regular user account unless you need to use the root account for

system administration tasks.

@end quotation

@quotation

@strong{Warning} Be careful to remove only the necessary partitions.

Removing other partitions could result in data loss or a corrupted

system environment.
