What the heck does [...] mean in your documenation?

Often I see the notation in your documenation [...]. What the
heck does that mean?

Often I see the notation in your documenation [...]. What the

Our apologies on this one -- we should have made it clearer.

The "[...]" notation means that you can have what's inside the brackets as an option.

For example, you can [not] answer the question directly if you want to be clever. And this sentence reads correctly either way: " ... can answer the question" or " ... can not answer the question". Does that answer the question?

The idea is to cut down on words and keep the context clear.
