To create an easily read post, proper formatting is a must!
Terminal output
The most important!!!
For terminal output, text output which disables forum formatting for special characters, use Code wrapping (Pre-formated text):
- It's easily done automatically with a shortcut. Select your text and press Ctrl - Shift+C
- Full Paragraph text (manually)
Create opening line with 3 "back-ticks" ` write or paste text and add on more similar line at the end of text.
```
Code text Bold text
```
Code text **No Bold text**
- Inline code (manually)
Enclose phrase with one "back-tick" `
Use `sudo` for root privs
Use
sudofor root privs
Quoting paragraph (which is too often mis-used for code output 
):
- Start the paragraph with
>
>My super Quote
My super Quote
- For combining paragraphes and/or empty lines, use more of this
>
> Nice idea
>
> One more idea
>
Nice idea
One more idea
Section titles
Start paragraph with 1 to 5 # followed by a space, like
# Highest level
Highest level
## 2nd Highest level
2nd Highest level
### 3nd Highest level
3nd Highest level
Separate sections with a horizontal line
- Create an empty paragraph line (with Enter) followed by a line with three dashes
---
Create lists
- For Ordered list start the line with a number (in sequence), a dot and a space
1. First
2. Second
3. Third
- First
- Second
- Third
- Unordered list, start with asterisk and space
* Think
* Draw
* Paint
- Think
- Draw
- Paint
Disable special characters preceding it with backslash \
This is \*not bold*
This is *not bold*
Most of the above can be used with just "Select text" and click a button at the Post Edit Toolbar, on which, hovering, you can see their keyboard shortcuts.
And now...
