Suggestion: Inline code BBCode

    It'd be nice to have that for the development-centric forums (the Computers and Technology place and also ROM hacking), like Stack Overflow implements with backticks.

    Since [code][/code] is used for codeblocks, I'd suggest [tt][/tt] as derived from the old HTML <tt></tt> tag. IIRC the Bulbapedia website uses <tt></tt> for inline code... it's certainly better than [font=Monospace][/font]. A translucent background could be added too, possibly?
     
    <tt> isn't supported by HTML 5. Or do you mean to code some alternative version independent of such tags? (Also a visual example might come in handy since I may not be the only one struggling to follow you here)

    Yeah, I mean I'm not saying there be a physical <tt> tag, but that be the name of the BBCode for ease of memory and typing. It could be a CSS class or whatever in actuality.

    I implemented a translucent rgba() background on my website and thought it looked nice, so I suggested that too as an alternative to the opaque grey they use on Stack Overflow.
     
    Anything new with this, perhaps? It's been a little bit, and I remembered as I ran into yet another opportunity to use these tags.

    Give Audy (or maybe another admin) a poke just in case they're not aware of this thread or forgot about it
