 * Type the HTML character entity:
    \
 * If you have a unix system, man ASCII and refer to the decimal table for character
   entity references.
 * Maybe they should add editor buttons for special characters. 🙂

 * *sigh*
 * This thing interpolated my ampersand amp semicolon and then parsed the reference
   literally, so:
 * AMPERSAND HASH NINE TWO SEMICOLON
 * & # 9 2 ;
 * Without the spaces.

 * Next time, surround your code with backticks to prevent it from being formatted.
   The backtick key is usually below the escape key, to the left of the one key,
   and above the tab key.
