From the manual although the language is pretty bad:
The format setting controls how the text in the style will be formatted. Valid
values are `leftJustified', `rightJustified', `centered', `computerCoded',
`alignColumnsLeft', `alignColumnsRight', and `contents'. The first three are
self-explanatory. `computerCoded' is used for computer programs and similar
material. The next two are used for tabular material. `alignColumnsLeft' causes
the left ends of columns to be aligned. `alignColumnsRight' causes the right
ends of columns to be aligned. `contents' is used only in styles specifically
intended for tables of contents.
...
The contents1, etc. styles all have the format contents setting. This is a
variant of the leftJustified format. It has been necessary to change the way
firstLineIndent is handled to accommodate multilevel lists. Up till now, if
firstLineIndent was negative, the first line would start at the real left
margin, regardless of the value of leftMargin. Now the value of firstLineIndent
is simply added to leftMargin. This means that if it is negative it is really
subtracted. For example, if leftMargin is 4 and firstLineIndent is -2 the first
line will start in cell 2. If the result of adding these two values is negative
it is set to 0.

Subject: [brailleblaster] Format Contents
I am looking at the nimas.cfg file. What does format contents and also format
computer coded mean?
