{choice1 | choice2}
Braces and vertical bars stand for a choice
between two or more items. Braces enclose the
choices whereas vertical bars separate the
choices. Only one item can be chosen.
Repeating elements...
Three dots following an item signify that more
items with the same form may be entered. For
example, the directive PUBLIC has the
following form:
PUBLIC name1 [,name2 [,...]]
In the above form, the three dots following
name2 indicate that many names can be entered
as long as each is preceded by a comma.
