>Description:
At least on plain-jane Mozilla 1.7.8 (linux) installed from port recently,
this page
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/preface-conventions.html
has an example of "User and group names", namely "root", which looks the same
as the other text surrounding it.  At least as an example, it should
look different.

Viewing the page source, I see:    <tt class="USERNAME">root</tt> 

If this has something to do with "style-sheets", we need some instructions on
how to set that up; I and many other users know next-to-nothing about it.

 did you try with other versions or browsers?

 FYI,
 
 It is different from the surrounding text.  The surrounding text is
 "plain text" but the "root" word is displayed with a monospaced font.
 
 In small sizes, this is not very obvious, but if you zoom in the larger
 character box size and the constant width of the characters in the
 "root" word is more apparent.
 
 The specific serif/sand-serif and monospaced fonts that Mozilla (or any
 browser) is configured to use may also play an important role in making
 the different easier to see.
 
 For instance, using "Arial" as the sans-serif font and "Courier" as the
 monospaced font makes the difference *much* more visible than say a
 setup where the sans-serif font is "Verdana" and the monospaced font is
 "Andale Mono".

 No, I have no others installed.  Maybe some doc@ readers will report
 whether "root" looks distinct in the "User and group names" line at

 It looks different here on every browser I have (Firefox, Camino,  
 Safari, Internet Explorer).  That's because of the browser's default  
 style for <tt> though, as docbook.css has nothing for either the tt  
 element or the username class.
 
 Perhaps we should be specifying a font family in the stylesheet?
