Yeah, it should not be part of the text just like line numbers shouldn’t be part of the code on a code hosting site, yet it can be visible, no? Later it does recommend using $ to distinguish command and output. Is it now okay for a beginner to be confused about what it means?
I absolutely abhor it when the command includes $ that copies with it. It means nothing to the beginner’s and the pros know it is a command.
