This is my current sentence:

Do a <programlisting>locate &lt;file&gt;</programlisting>
if they're not where I think they should be.

I don't really want the <prompt> bit in there was well. How should locate
and file be marked up though? Maybe something like this:
	<programlisting><command>locate</command>
<userinput>&lt;file&gt;</userinput></programlisting>

does that look right?

thanks!
