+# Dev Server Folders
+
 * As a developer - you may find the necessity to build a clean server/folder with the latest PEQ database without messing up an existing folder - today this is easy to do and applies for either Linux or Windows
 * **This assumes you have Perl / MySQL and the rest of the environment already installed**

-### Creating a New Folder
+#### Creating a New Folder

 * First, create your server folder that you wish use, the examples are going to be used with Linux, but the command line is almost identical for Windows
-
 * In Linux - the base installer uses /home/eqemu/ - so let's use that directory as our base

-```
+```text
 mkdir eqemu_test
 cd eqemu_test
 ```

-### Using eqemu_server.pl
-
-* Now that we are in our server folder, we can either copy the eqemu_server.pl from another server folder, or we can pull down a fresh copy from Github
+#### Using eqemu\_server.pl

+* Now that we are in our server folder, we can either copy the eqemu\_server.pl from another server folder, or we can pull down a fresh copy from Github
 * You can use curl, wget or manually create the file
-> curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EQEmu/Server/master/utils/scripts/eqemu_server.pl eqemu_server.pl && chmod 755 eqemu_server.pl && ./eqemu_server.pl new_server

-> wget --no-check-certificate --cache=no https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EQEmu/Server/master/utils/scripts/eqemu_server.pl  -O eqemu_server.pl && chmod 755 eqemu_server.pl && ./eqemu_server.pl new_server
+```bash
+curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EQEmu/Server/master/utils/scripts/eqemu_server.pl eqemu_server.pl && chmod 755 eqemu_server.pl && ./eqemu_server.pl new_server
+```

-### Setting Environment Parameters
+```bash
+wget --no-check-certificate --cache=no https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EQEmu/Server/master/utils/scripts/eqemu_server.pl  -O eqemu_server.pl && chmod 755 eqemu_server.pl && ./eqemu_server.pl new_server
+```
+
+#### Setting Environment Parameters

 * The script will prompt for a few questions, this is to ask for a valid MySQL user/password so the script can install a new environment properly, it is also going to ask for your new database name so it can associate the new folder with that database

-```

+
 * Note: If you do not supply valid MySQL credentials - the command will halt and not continue. Make sure to also use a simple database name to prevent issues

-### Waiting for Installation
+#### Waiting for Installation

 * Next, this is going to kick off installer routines - and build the source in the following directory:
-  * **/home/eqemu/eqemu_test**_source/Server/build
+  * **/home/eqemu/eqemu\_test**\_source/Server/build
  * When this is done compiling, the folder you created will by symlinked to this custom build directory
 * Once complete, you will see installation summary info presented to you
