-<para>To make things easy to follow, there are a number of conventions used

-<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
-in the explanation sections to identify which of the commands is being
-referenced.</para></blockquote>

-
-<blockquote><para>This form of text (fixed width text) is showing screen
-output, probably as the result of commands issued, and is also used to
-show filenames, such as <filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename>.</para></blockquote>

-<para><emphasis>Emphasis</emphasis></para>
-
-<blockquote><para>This form of text is used for several purposes in the
-book, mainly to emphasize important points, and to give examples of
-what to type.</para></blockquote>

-<blockquote><para>This form of text is used for hyperlinks, both within the
-book and to external pages such as HOWTOs, download locations and

-
-<blockquote><para>This type of section is used mainly when creating
-configuration files. The first command tells the system to create
-the file $LFS/etc/group from whatever is typed on the following lines until
-the sequence EOF is encountered. Therefore, this whole section is generally
-typed as seen.</para></blockquote>
