Comment formatting guide

Comments are formatted with Markdown and SmartyPants.

Code: blocks and inline

To get monospace formatting for inline code, just `use backticks`. You'll really want to remember this if
you're mentioning a `method_name_with_underscores` -- without the backticks, parts would get italicized and the
underscores would disappear. Same thing goes for punctuation like double-quotes: they'll be curly otherwise.

    Indent blocks four spaces on each line
    to make them pre-formatted (like code).

If you have a long block of code to paste, please use a Pastie and add the link to your comment.

Links, bold, italics

You can just use HTML for links, or write: [I <3 <3!](http://shiftcommathree.com).

Use one set of *asterisks* or _underscores_ for italics, **another** for __bold__.

Line breaks

Press return twice to make paragraphs. If you want a single line break instead, just use two  
spaces at the end of the line before a single return (like I did after 'two' above).

Blockquotes and lists

> Blockquotes look just like
> plain-text email replies.

*   List items have asterisks,
*   then three spaces,
*   then the list item.
