Abstract
A first portion of a Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) configuration language string is determined, the first portion identifying an Human Interface Infrastructure (HII) configuration attribute. A second portion of the string is determined and includes a first attribute modifier. The first attribute modifier includes a first name-value pair identifying a first name and a first value. The first name and the first value are individually parsable, and the meaning of the first value is determined based on the first name. The string is stored at a HII string package of an HII database. An HII string identifier uniquely references the string.
