Buttons and Links

Buttons or links you need to click will be bold as in the following example.

  1. Click Change… 

Shell Commands

Commands you are to execute in a command prompt, PowerShell, or terminal will appear as follows.

cd c:\temp

User provided values

Values that are to be supplied by the user will be surrounded by curly braces as follows.

{DesiresWebSiteName}

Source Code

Source code to be copied and pasted will appear as follows.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
   class Program
   {
      static void Main(string[] args)
      {
      }
   }
}

Code samples like the one above can be Double-clicked to make copying and pasting the code easier.
