Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "The user data partition occupies most of the NAND memory and is mounted at /private/var on the device."

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ git clone https://github.com/benvium/libimobiledevice-macosx.git ~/Desktop/libimobiledevice-macosx/

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "Every time an application is suspended to the background by pressing the Home button".
