Style Guide

This Style Guide will document stylistic conventions to be followed on this wiki.

Unlike the forum or other places, the wiki represents an relatively official view of Stairways Software and Keyboard Maestro (subject to the fact that is not actually moderated only by Stairways Software). As such, it needs to be somewhat more formal.

Some stylistic guidelines:

  • Avoid abbreviations. In particular, never abbreviate “Keyboard Maestro”.
  • Avoid CAPITALS for emphasis, use italic (//italic//) or bold (**bold**).
  • The User Manual is particularly formal, tread very lightly when editing it.
  • Use (v<n>+), where <n> is the version number, to indicate the version for which a specific feature or change became effective.
  • Avoid the use of horizontal lines as separators.

Example Trigger page:

====== Focused Window Trigger ======
  
The //Focused Window trigger// (v7.0+) executes the macro when the selected option occurs.
  
{{:trigger:km-focused-window-trigger.png?nolink|}}

Example Function page:

====== MINUTE Function ======

The MINUTE([unixtime]) function returns the minutes (0-59) in the local time zone, either the current minutes, or the minutes of the specified [[:unixtime]].

	MINUTE() === the current minutes
	MINUTE( unixtime ) === the minutes of the unix time
