In general, you're supposed to type only what's after the $ (or #, if
you're supposed to do things as root). Everything before the $ is the
prompt printed by the terminal program. So you should be typing only
"latency-test" (without the quotes).
There should be a "conventions used in this manual" section somewhere,
but I'm not sure exactly where it is (if it does exist).

Hi Steve
Thanks for the "super quick" response.
OK I understand, now how do I get rid of:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~
It (terminal) will not allow me to 'Backspace' or 'delete'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~
I think I'm really missing something here.
Thanks
Dave
