  1. List the file systems.
    The following command shows all of the NFS file systems that are shared. The output includes information about who can mount the file system. 
    % showmount -e remoteserver
export list for remoteserver:

    It seems odd to use the numeral '1' in this single-step procedure. I'd suggest not using the numeral and rewording to something like:

    "Use the following command to list all the file systems on a known server that are shared using the NFS service. The output includes information about who can mount the file system." Then, show the command syntax.

    Also, is the "for" in the command output intentionally in blue? It seems like an oops to me.
