Description Direct Docs Feedback 2023-08-03 13:09:25 UTC
This section doesn't correctly use markups.

Real values (like interface names) appear in , which is confusing because readers could copy/paste them and think they are part of the command.

For example, if you use a placeholder, it should use the following markups/notation
ip link add name __ ...

If you use real values, then don't use angle brackets.

DDF broke my example:

> ip link add name __ ...

should be:

ip link add name __<interface_name>__ ...
