6.20. prompt

To show a prompt, such as a root or DOS prompt, use the <prompt> and </prompt> commands. For example:


At the <prompt>LILO:</prompt> boot prompt, type linux to 
boot into your Linux partition.

At the <prompt>C:\></prompt> prompt, type ....

The output:

At the LILO: boot prompt, type linux to boot into your Linux partition.

At the C:\> prompt, type ....

[Note]Note

When showing example computer output (usually in screen tags), do not include the prompt or command (unless the command or prompt is the actually computer output you want to show).
