Ben, this works a treat for the examples I posted last night - many
thanks.
However, I just realized the code blocks are a little more complex than
I thought:
a) one-line/inline code blocks are delimited by a set of 3 curly
braces.
b) multi-line blocks
- are delimited by any number of braces (min 3)
- the code may contain sets of curly braces (they don't need to match)
- the block is closed by the first set of braces that contains the same
number of braces as the opening set
- the first code line must be on a new line (not on the same line as
the opening braces)
EXAMPLE:
========
an inline {{{code}}} example
{{{
a block code
}}}
blah {{{{
{{{a block code}}}
}}}}
