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: "You also need to install openssl and libevent, which are used by vibe.d."

A block of code is set as follows:

name "hello"
description "A simple vibe.d server application."
copyright "Copyright © 2015, <yourid>"
authors "<yourid>"
dependency "vibe-d" version="~>0.7.23"
versions "VibeDefaultMain"

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

body
  block header
    header Header
  block navigation
    include navigation
  block content
  block footer
    footer Footer

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ tar xvzf dub-0.9.24.tar.gz
$ cd dub-0.9.24
$ ./build.sh

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: "Click on the Unlock button to unlock the window and change the account type to Administrator."
