Waste of paper. Provides no useful information. The only useful
convention-type info I've seen is how to read syntax stuff, like [stuff
in brackets is optional], and also what language programming examples
are written in. Otherwise, stuff like "key names are presented in
all-caps bold" is self-evident.
