Just a small note regarding text width: the Code Listings used throughout |
| 8 |
various documents should have no-wrap activated. It's sensitive material |
| 9 |
(such as commands) and needs to be interpreted by the user correctly (as the |
| 10 |
author wants). Having word-wraps inside Code Listings might have disastrous |
| 11 |
results. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
However, we can 'easily' adjust Code Listings to use hard-wrapping, such as |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
# useradd -G wheel,users,audio,cdrw \ |
| 16 |
-m -k username |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
However, this won't show up nicely for users who have high resolutions, as |
| 19 |
Code Listings would be extremely small for them. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
So I'm personally not sure what to do here. Until now, we've set forth that |
| 22 |
the installation instructions force a 80-char width for Code Listings; all |
| 23 |
other documents are free to do as they like. |
