 ### Running lbrycrd
 
 If you ran the easy install script, the lbrycrd folder will be in the directory you ran lbry_setup.sh from. Otherwise it is the root of the cloned lbrycrd repository. Go to that directory.
 
+```
 ./src/lbrycrdd -server -daemon

 If you want to mine LBC, also use the flag '-gen', so:

 ./src/lbrycrdd -server -daemon -gen
