1.4 Typography
To make things easier to follow in the book, there are a few typographical conventions used. This section contains some examples of the typographical format used throughout the ERPNext Administrator’s Guide.
1.4.1 Code / Command Line
The following example shows commands to be typed in at a command line, or other pre-formatted text form logs, error messages:
bench use [site name]
bench backup --with-files
bench upgrade --upgrade
1.4.2 Replaceable Text
Any text that is expected to be replaced by something site specific is contained inside of square brackets. In this example the user should place the name of the site (e.g. site1.local) as a replacement for [site name].
bench use [site name]
1.4.3 Important
Anything that is important to note to the reader is prefaced with NOTE:
1.4.4 Actions
When describing actions to take in a set of instructions, button clicks are in bold font. It is assumed that the word “click” is synonymous with “tap” for touch sensitive interfaces.
- Login to ERPNext with Administrator account
- Click the Login button
- Click Setup on the Desk
1.4.5 Names of Programs / Utilities
The names of programs or utilities that are referenced in regular text will be in fixed width font, such as sudo
, su
, cd
, or bench
.
1.4.6 Path Navigation
When working inside of ERPNext, the Administrators guide will give a click path to get to a particular document. The format will look like this:
Explore > Setup > Users > User
In this example, the user clicks the Explore icon on the Desktop, navigates to the Setup module, looks for the Users header and clicks on the User document list.
