 If `gitea` can use three different types of database, the documentation should simply pick one and continue instructions from there.
 Repetition works better than a reference - if a database requires three commands to set up, it's better to repeat those three commands for every program that requires a database than to just link to another file which discusses databases.

 ## Three Input Types
 
 There are three types of examples:
 
 Fixed input:
 
-```bash

-ls

+Arbitrary Input shows the non-fixed input in italics:

-Anything with arbitrary input should be shown as a variable.
