It’s a pretty ugly, low-tech solution though. If you are controlling the output HTML & PDF, this “won’t” be a problem, but many stylesheets (such as my own) style such incline `<code>` elements to have a slightly colored background. It is definitely an ugly solution in that it does not produce portable or semantic output. AJH
