Subject:RE: Bold to highlight files and paths? From:"SM Rush" <sellar -at- apptechsys -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 17 Aug 2001 12:28:06 -0700
The main reason to bold certain things (other than headers) in documentation
is to make it easy for the reader to quickly scan the text and pick out what
they need as they're working. I generally only do it for menu items, not
file paths.
