Conventions Used in This Book

---

I’ve used a variety of elements to help keep the text clear and easy to follow. You’ll find code terms and listings in monospace type, except when I tell you to actually type a command. In that case, the command appears in bold type. When I introduce and define a new term, I put it in italics.

Other conventions include

Note

To provide details on a point that needs emphasis

Best Practices

To examine the best technique to use when working with advanced configuration and administration concepts

Caution

To warn you when there are potential problems you should look out for

More Info

Real World

Security Alerts

Tip

I truly hope you find that Microsoft Windows Command Line Administrator’s Pocket Consultant provides everything that you need to perform essential administrative tasks as quickly and efficiently as possible. You’re welcome to send your thoughts to me at [e-mail]. Thank you.
