 Introduction
 ============
 
-This document is a user guide for the testpmd example application that is shipped as part of the Data Plane Development Kit.
+This document is a user guide for the ``testpmd`` example application that is shipped as part of the Data Plane Development Kit.
 
-The testpmd application can be used to test the DPDK in a packet forwarding mode
+The ``testpmd`` application can be used to test the DPDK in a packet forwarding mode
 and also to access NIC hardware features such as Flow Director.
 It also serves as a example of how to build a more fully-featured application using the DPDK SDK.
