TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Commas, semi-colons, and periods go inside the closing quotation mark. In
this case, I recommend creating a style (named, for instance "code") and
configuring that to use Courier, Courier New, or another console-style font
to display the text to be entered on the command line. That way, you won't
need to cite the command line reference as a quotation.
Cheers,
