1.2 Conventions


This manual will follow certain conventions throughout.

Whenever a variable name, command name, directory, or file name is
used in a paragraph, they will appear in a mono-spaced font.

At times the reader will be instructed to enter commands at a
prompt. In this case a transcript of a sample session will be provided
where a prompt will be followed by the commands the reader is to
enter. The entire transcript will be in a mono-spaced font with the
prompt in a normal weight and the user's entries in bold.

The prompt used in a transcript varies depending on the
circumstances. The following are some common prompts and when
they are used:

prompt#

used when the user is required to have root privileges


prompt%

used when the user is not required to have root
privileges
