| | | Posting material that would otherwise be translated is now easier, using:
[code]
[code]
..

blocks.
Explaining how to use square bracket stuff is easier in code blocks:
[code]
the word bold is bold
Identify a user with a link via: justin

Email headers, often pasted in the stopping spam forums, often contain html-like stuff that would otherwise be stripped. You can now just put that stuff inside a code block, and it will not be touched.

# My code goes here
}
[/code]
For now, links are still auto-converted within code blocks:
[code]
»www.cnn.com
»https://www.cnn.com
»ftp://ftp.cnn.com
[/code]
THERE ARE RULES:
[code]
starts on the left, and the end tag must end on the left as well, just the way it appears in the first box above.
