I'm working on my team's document template. I'd like to know the font
size/style standards you've developed for:
Commands and strings.
File names.
Directory names.
Utilities.
Menu selections.
Keyboard, menu, and GUI buttons.
Right now, we don't have a standard, except that we put commands in a
Courier font, and everything else doesn't get a separate font style. I've
looked in my Chicago manual, and can't find a recommendation. So I'd like to
know what you're doing.
Thanks so much for your help!
