Really dumb question: What is a “backtick” for code in posts? How to type one?
-
The instructions for inserting text formatting in Forum posts says:
Allowed tags: a em strong code ul ol li blockquote.
Put code in betweenbackticks
.But what is a “backtick”? I tried a backwards accent, and then a single quote — neither worked. I’ve been typing my whole life and I’ve never heard of a backtick before, nor do i know where to find one on a keyboard. But without knowing what a backtick is, I can’t format text in my postings here.
Thanks.
