You can write with email plain text conventions. The forum software recognizes just some of it, but the readers will know what you mean. So like quote lines get leading `>` (forum parses this). You can put `---` or ``` around code blocks (people know what you mean), stuff like that.

A poster has come up with a standard way to delineate code and also show if multiple files are involved (along with an "extraction to files" program): https://forum.dlang.org/thread/ndgdqraxjkuvfsjhewgy forum.dlang.org This method now works at https://run.dlang.io
