Conventions used

There are a few conventions that we use throughout these docs.

• Unix shell commands begin with '$' or for superuser, '#' :

  Code Block
  language text
  $ sudo -s # id uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)

• ONOS CLI commands begin with 'onos>' :

  Code Block
  language text
  onos> summary

• Both shell and CLI commands are inlined in sentences in monospace font, e.g. ls or topology.
• File names, directory paths, and keywords are in italic. 
• User inputs and navigation of web pages are bold e.g. Ctrl-D and Browse > Pages. 
• Italic and monospace terms may also be bolded to emphasize them.

Further conventions, if any, are described where relevant.
