Could someone give me a link on how to format a post and in particular how to quote code? Thank you in advance.

Hi @kw_martin ,
in general, posts can be formatted using [Markdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown)
For a quick reference, see here: [Markdown Reference](https://commonmark.org/help/)
In particular, code can be put into its own formatted block by putting it between triple backticks:
```
my code goes here
```
will be formatted as
```julia
my code goes here
```

Thank you, your link to the [Markdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown) reference is exactly what I was looking for.
