Question on Board Feature

[Guest crandamaniac]

I been trying to figure this out, but what exactly does the code button do?

[Guest areacode212]

Nothing interesting. It does the same thing as the quote tag, but it was expressly created for sharing programming code (a lot of message boards are devoted to computer subjects). It would be even better if what was inside was automatically converted to a monospace font, but it doesn't even do that.

 

e.g., here's something from my LISP class:

(defun getname ()
  (format t "~%Please enter your name.~%")
  (setf name (read))
  (format t "~%Hello ~a.  How are you?" name))

Oh ok, thought it really did something important that I was missing out on. Thanks for the answer

I also have a question.

 

Most people have custom titles. How do you set it?

 

Is it like a 1000+ post thing?

Also, can you spell check your posts?

[Guest Spaceman Spiff]

I think the custom title level is 100 posts. To edit, go to My Controls -> Edit Profile Info, and there should be a box at the top.

 

No spell check that I know of.
