Discourse markdown tags (revised)

Perhaps we could share a few Common Mark markdown tags we can use to make our posts more readable.

program code : <code> program code </code>
inserted code : <ins> inserted code </ins>
deleted code : <del> deleted code </del>
marked text : <mark>marked text</mark>
This is a spoiler blur : This is a [spoiler]spoiler[/spoiler] blur
Keyboard keys Ctrl+k : <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>k</kbd>

Use &lt; (‘less than’ symbol) instead of a < to keep phases like <username> from disappearing because they were confused with being a markdown tag.

[quote="username"] quoted text [/quote]

--- (horizontal rule, must be on its own line and preceding by an extra blank linefeed or it makes the line above into a header)


[grid] ... [/grid]
Arrange images in a table grid instead of 1 image per line. The following grid images have an English and German capture of the same dialogs (although with different database data):
