 It has a web interface, but runs best from a Xiki-enabled text editor.  It has menus for quickly getting started with using various tools and libraries.  Also you can easily create your own menus, in about ten different ways.  Many of them will seem obvious to you.

 ## Install Xiki
 
 Either install as a gem, or install from github.
 
 ### Install from github
 
-      $ git clone git://github.com/trogdoro/xiki.git
-      $ cd xiki
-      $ sudo gem install bundler   # <- no "sudo" if using rvm
-      $ sudo bundle                # <- no "sudo" if using rvm
-      $ sudo ruby etc/command/copy_xiki_command_to.rb /usr/bin/xiki
+    $ git clone git://github.com/trogdoro/xiki.git
+    $ cd xiki
+    $ sudo gem install bundler   # <- no "sudo" if using rvm
+    $ sudo bundle                # <- no "sudo" if using rvm
+    $ sudo ruby etc/command/copy_xiki_command_to.rb /usr/bin/xiki
 
-      # Or, if you're using rvm...
-      $ ruby etc/command/copy_xiki_command_to.rb /usr/local/bin/xiki
+    # Or, if you're using rvm...
+    $ ruby etc/command/copy_xiki_command_to.rb /usr/local/bin/xiki
 
 ### Or, as a gem
 
 #### Note: at the moment this will give you the old Xiki version.  Use the "github" instructions.
 
-      # This will work again soon, but currently use github
-      $ gem install xiki --pre
+    # This will work again soon, but currently use github
+    $ gem install xiki --pre
 
 ## Verify the 'xiki' shell command works
 
 Close your current console window and open a new one.  Then type...
 
-      $ xiki
+    $ xiki
 
 #### Troubleshooting

 ## Bring up the Xiki web interface
 
-      $ xiki web/start
+    $ xiki web/start
 
 Then follow the instructions you see (it tells you to go to http://localhost:8161).  Under "Getting Started" it walks you through creating menus and trying them in the web interface, and then getting Xiki running in a text editor.
