When I make posts to this forum and have code to show, I do something like this: [code] module xyz (); // ... endmodule [/code] This has worked on other forums, creating a window with the text in a diffe rent font for whatever was enclosed between the [code] and [/code] tags, bu t it doesn't look like it works here. Is there any way to get my code repre sented differently in this forum? I've also used [code] and [/code] to repr esent the results of attempted simulations.

Is there any way to get a different font for code sections?

The simple answer is no, but I suppose that depends on where you believe "h ere" is. This is usenet and as such is intended to be a simple text based medium without typeface control. It also has issues with line length where the intention is to wrap lines at 72 characters. That often depends on th e program you use to read and create posts.

So don't count on any help from the tools. They were all designed to worry about the structure of the conversation rather than the content and displa y of the messages.
