I have difficulty resisting the urge to correctly format stuff. I'm trying though. I just posted a message with both titles in it in "normal" text.

Not sure if I'll be able to sleep tonight.

Do you type out the code manually or do the highlight and button press on the reply page? I do it manually so it never seemed like a big deal. Its trickier when I'm trying to insert it into something I copy/pasted.

I type the code manually.  It's still a pain when dealing with a bunch of different instances.

I usually type out my post then go back and highlight with the mouse and hit the magic I button. I feel that's quicker for me.

That actually works?  Sunovabitch.  It does!

Now to try to guess how long I have been able to do this and not know it.

I use the quick reply so it's manual for me.
