Legend
A boxed text whose each line begins with a dollar sign ($) denotes that readers
should enter this text into your shell in order to run commands:
$ mkdir -p foo/bar
$ cd foo/bar
Note that the dollar signs ($) at the beginning of each line stand for command prompts.
You must omit them when you enter the text into your shell.
