-Running the kinetics_na.hoc or kinetics_k.hoc simulation files 
+- Running the kinetics_na.hoc or kinetics_k.hoc simulation files 
 will show the activation and inactivation steady-states, 
 the time constants, and a family of curves generated modeling 
 the same protocols used in the paper.
 
-Markers show the experimental values estimated from Figs.4C 
+- Markers show the experimental values estimated from Figs.4C 
 (Na), 8C (KA), and 10C (KDR) of the paper.
 Note that m is used rather than the more usual m^3 for activation
 of the Na current. Na recovery from inactivation is not implemented.
 
-Under unix systems:
+## Under unix systems:
 to compile the mod files use the command 
-nrnivmodl 
+``` nrnivmodl ```
 and run the simulation hoc file with the command 
-nrngui kinetics_na.hoc
+``` nrngui kinetics_na.hoc ```
 or 
-nrngui kinetics_k.hoc
+``` nrngui kinetics_k.hoc ```

-Under Windows using NEURON 5.1:
-to compile the mod files use the "mknrndll" command.
+## Under Windows using NEURON 5.1:
+to compile the mod files use the ``` mknrndll ``` command.
 A double click on the simulation files
 kinetics_na.hoc or kinetics_k.hoc
 will open the simulation windows.
