Conventions
In this book, you will find a number of text styles that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles and an explanation of their meaning.
Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "Now, type startx to load the familiar UI."
A block of code is set as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>Hello world</title> </head>
When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:
def fileclick(req): if 'id' not in req.form: return listloc(session['currdir']) clickedfile = safe_join(session['currdir'], req.form['id']) if path.isfile(clickedfile): clickedfile = url_for('static', filename = clickedfile.replace(app.static_folder+'/','')) return clickedfile return 0
Any command-line input or output is written as follows:
# dd if=file.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=4M
New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "Finally, click Write and remove the card."
Note
Warnings or important notes appear in a box like this.
Tip
