   After making modifications to the manual, it's important to build it before
   committing. You can do that as follows:
 <screen>
-  $ cd /path/to/nixpkgs/doc
-  $ nix-shell
-  [nix-shell]$ make clean
-  [nix-shell]$ nix-build .
+<prompt>$ </prompt>cd /path/to/nixpkgs/doc
+<prompt>$ </prompt>nix-shell
+<prompt>[nix-shell]$ </prompt>make clean
+<prompt>[nix-shell]$ </prompt>nix-build .
 </screen>
   If the build succeeds, the manual will be in
   <filename>./result/share/doc/nixpkgs/manual.html</filename>.
