<console>

The <console> tag records a verbatim terminal session as a sequence of <input> and optional <output> elements. Prompts can be supplied on the <console> itself or on individual inputs with the prompt and continuation attributes.

If the session needs a number, title, or cross-reference target, wrap the console in a <listing>.
