<title>Conventions Used in this Book</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>To make things easy to follow, there are a number of conventions used
|
|
throughout the book. Following are some examples:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<para>This form of text is designed to be typed exactly as seen unless
|
|
otherwise noted in the surrounding text. It is also used to identify
|
|
references to specific commands.</para>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<screen><computeroutput>install-info: unknown option
|
|
`--dir-file=/mnt/lfs/usr/info/dir'</computeroutput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<para>This form of text (fixed width text) is showing screen
|
|
output, probably a result from issuing a command. It is also used to
|
|
show filenames such as <filename>/boot/grub/grub.conf</filename></para>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<para><emphasis>Emphasis</emphasis></para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<para>This form of text is used for several purposes in the
|
|
book but mainly to emphasize important points or to give examples as to
|
|
what to type.</para>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<para><ulink url="http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/"/></para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<para>This form of text is used for hypertext links external to
|
|
the book such as HowTos, download locations, websites, etc.</para>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<para><xref linkend="mozilla"/></para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<para>This form of text is used for links internal to
|
|
the book such as another section describing a different package.</para>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput>cat > $LFS/etc/group << "EOF"
|
|
<literal>root:x:0:
|
|
bin:x:1:
|
|
......</literal>
|
|
EOF</userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<para>This type of section is used mainly when creating configuration
|
|
files. The first command (in bold) tells the system to create
|
|
the file <filename>$LFS/etc/group</filename> from whatever is typed on the
|
|
following lines until the sequence EOF is encountered.
|
|
Therefore, this whole section is generally typed as seen.</para>

<para><replaceable>[REPLACED TEXT]</replaceable></para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<para>This form of text is used to encapsulate text that should be
|
|
modified and is not to be typed as seen, or copy and pasted. Note that
|
|
the square brackets are not part of the text, but should be substituted
|
|
for as well.</para>
