Following the heading, the full form of the command is given, using the
ASCII names for control codes, eg <ESC> (the angle brackets on either side
of the name are not part of the name, being simply delimiters, and should not
be entered). Variable parameters are indicated by a letter (usually "n"), and
an optional number, enclosed in angle brackets (eg <nO>). Where an
indefinite number of parameters are to be supplied, the <n>s are separated
by an ellipsis ((I.. . "). The sequence is then given using hexadecimal codes
(two hexadecimal digits followed by a lowercase "h"), with variables again
represented by letters enclosed in angle brackets. The decimal equivalent
follows the hexadecimal. The following is an example:

Note that the above command sequence is for example purposes only - it
does not have any real function.
