in reply to suggestion : change to code tag

This is a good idea. However, we have enough of a problem getting newbies to use <code> to begin with. I think our more experienced users who would be able to make use of such an attribute already make it very clear when theyre posting a question to SoPW.

just my take on it,

    i think adding optional line numbers would not make it any harder to get newbies to use them, and if it would simplify life for the people who felt like using it, i'm in favor. at least we aren't suggesting automatically wrapping any writeup by someone of less than monk status that also contains a $ in <CODE> tags if it contains none.

    though it might work...
