Something you see a lot is marking prompts with "$>" or some other
character combination to denote that the line was typed by the user.
The hash (#) often represents super-user commands, while the dollar sign
is used for standard user commands, e.g.:

$> sudo -s
Password:
#> id
uid=0(root) gid=0(wheel) groups=0(wheel),80(admin)
#> exit
$>
