We recommend the setup of offline signing keys to be done on a second machine that
does not have internet access.
-In this guide, we mark commands that are supposed to be executed on the online
-exchange machine as ``[root@exchange-online]#`` / ``[$user@exchange-online]$`` and commands for the offline
-machine as ``[root@exchange-offline]#`` / ``[$user@exchange-offline]$``. It is possible to do the entire setup
-on one machine, but we do not recommend this for security reasons.
+In this guide's shell-session fragments, the command prompt shows two pieces
+of information:
+* Who is performing the command
+ (``$user`` vs ``root``, and ending char ``$`` vs ``#``).
+* Host where the command is supposed to be executed
+ (``exchange-offline`` vs ``exchange-online``).
+ It is possible to do the entire setup on one machine,
