Thanks for the info. I am using Markdown to generate formats beyond just 
HTML, but could use HTML if needed.

Do any of the Markdown derivatives support what I want to do?

Do any Markdown derivatives provide a syntax to mean use <tt> or <code> 
without following stuff being taken literally by Markdown?

If not, I will code this for my own use. I will attempt to add an option 
to Markdown so it doesn't take it literal.

Or maybe use two "" (two double-quotes) to begin and end the <pre><code> 
block. Or start line with "" (two doubel-quotes).
