Markdown Plugin and Code Blocks

[Captain Packers]

I'm thinking about developing documentation for a GitHub project using TiddlyWiki, but I don't like the way the markdown plugin is handling code blocks.

Rather than giving me a "block" of code in a sort of a framed pre-formated fashion, it looks more like the inline code, the red text with white background, and I don't think it looks good.

Does anyone know how to format code with this plugin so that it literally looks like a block?

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried surrounding your block with the monospaced editor tool bar button., which results in

```

Your code

If you change the TYpe: to text/x-markdown, the monospaced button surrounds the text with a single quote, and you get the "inline" style formatting.

Manually surrounding with backticks still gives "inline" style formatting, with an extra "inline" character (white background only, no text) above the line of code. (That may be hard to follow, but I don't know how to show it. I guess I could attach a screen shot if it would help.)

Got it! You indent 4 or more spaces.

Thanks.

Screen Shot please, then I will know what you were trying to achieve, I am curious.

Thanks
