Welcome, poster. So you want your comments to look nice? Good. Let us take a tour of every tag the forums understand, with zero judgement and maximum enthusiasm.

The basics

You get bold, italic, and underline. Combine them if you must: dramatically important. We will not stop you.

Lists

Lists keep rants organized:

• Point one, delivered calmly.


• Point two, delivered loudly.


• Point three, which is just an emote.

Links and images

Bare links auto-format: https://madsplash.net. Named links are classier: read the blog. Images take an inline style up front:



Code

Wrap code so it keeps its shape:

CODE 
function wave() {
    return "hello, forum";
}

The full emote zoo

Every one of these needs a space before it, then works like magic: happy , grinning , tongue , sad , dread , flat , unamused , winks and and , and the ever-dangerous

Now go forth and post beautifully.

CODE 
echo "no more mangled indentation";
