Don't rely on online service to save your stuff.

Edit: how can i exclude < and > from being interpreted?

[-] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Usually a backslash (the one under the backspace key, not the one that shares a key with ”?") before a character that would usually be treated as a formatting instruction will stop it from being interpreted as such. Could be different for other machine-interpreted languages but when used this way, the backslash is called an "escape character".

The \ key. And you might ask how I wrote that symbol without it gettting interpreted. Well, by writing \\.

Which you wrote by writing \\\\ which I wrote by writing \\\\\\\\ which I wrote by writing \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\.... help I'm stuck in a loop

But that didn't work for 'angle braket open' text 'angle braket close'? Not even in code tag right now.

~~How about using "&lt;" and ">" ("<" and ">", respectively)?~~

Edit: Okay, I see what you mean. That is strange. Not sure what to do about that but will look around.

It's a forward slash, to be clear. There's not two backslashes on the keyboard.

Imagine being downvoted because someone else can't figure out the difference between a forward and back slash.

Lemmings, weird breed. Lots of chuds, it seems.
