 * It can’t print HTML element tags and whatnot – which is surprising for a forum
   dedicated to web development. Perhaps a better editor is in order.

 * It can print HTML tags, you just need to surround them with the backticks, which
   is what the “code” button does.

       This is code on the forum.
