Jed, thanks for replying! 

I don't know of anything we currently have that will both automatically

In a way I guess I'm looking for something that merely is a less powerful 
backtick formatter. Currently, using backticks disables all other 
formatting. But if you use, say, italic-slashes you can still apply other 
formatting on top of it. Maybe there could be concise(!) wikitext formatter 
that would produce the same result as merely surrounding the things with a 
styled div or span. I.e so that these two would yield the same appearence 
(I'm winging the CSS a bit but I think the point is clear)

<span style="font-style:Monospace; background:lightgray;">Some //cool// 
code!</span>

££Some //cool// code!££


The ££ is just an example to illustrate something as concise as the normal 
wikitext formatters.

By the way... it is a bit unfortunate that //italics// use the same 
characters that is used for //code-comments in (most?) code. It would be 
nice to copy-paste code into TW and have the //code-comments be recognized 
and formatted differently from the code.


@Danielo - maybe the above has answered your point implicitly, but to be 
explicit: One should easily be able to intersperse comments and other 
formatting in the code. Note that it isn't really code - it is *notes on* 
code - and as such the notational aspects are important.

<:-)
