Notation Conventions

This manual uses the following notation conventions throughout.

  • This style marks file paths, extensions, code identifiers, enumeration values, and shortcut keys.
  • Bold text marks a label that actually appears in the UI. PAIO's UI strings are in English, so this manual quotes them verbatim instead of translating them. For example: Add ECU, Save All, Generate ECUC.
  • Menu paths are joined with ▸. For example: Project ▸ Open Workspace....
  • Shortcuts follow Windows and Linux conventions. On macOS, read Ctrl as Cmd.
  • A blockquote (>) marks a fact that needs your attention. It is used in particular for a label whose behavior differs from what it says and for an item that is present in the UI but does not work.
  • Error messages are quoted exactly as the application prints them in English.
