Prerequisite Concepts |
In most situations, OmniMark does not distinguish between the use of uppercase letters or the corresponding lowercase letters in names or keywords. In some cases, however, such distinctions are significant.
In particular, case is never significant in OmniMark keywords such as element
. Thus, the following are all equivalent:
ELEMENT list
element list
Element list
Similarly, case is never significant in the names of OmniMark objects. All of the following examples set the same variable, "first-chapter":
set First-Chapter to true
set FIRST-CHAPTER to true
set first-chapter to true
Under programmer control, case can be significant in SGML names, name tokens, and number tokens that appear in a program. This determination is independent of the naming rules in the relevant SGML Declaration. The significance of capitalization in SGML names can be set using the namecase general
declaration.
