Well, I just found Bennet’s excellent Code Markup Plugin, and with it, I was able to pretty quickly fix the post about C Sharp Verbatim Strings.
I knew some smart guy would have written that, and sure enough, he did.
With very little extra work, I was able to get some cool formatting going.
Cool Formatting
using System;
using System.Text;
public class Hello
{
public static void Main()
{
String verbatim =
@"This is a
verbatim string, and it can go
on and on, using ""quote"" characters
etc but everything else
is not escaped, like tab characters, \t
and so forth.";
System.Console.Write(verbatim);
}
}

Well, my copy of Visual Studio arrived, and it’s installing now. This should make hacking around in C sharp a bit more intuitive, and certainly it makes ASP.NET development a heck of a lot easier than it would have been otherwise. Looks like fourth of July weekend will be given over at least in part to some major hacking, if it isn’t Memorial Day by the time the installer finishes. The package also included an exam voucher for the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0—Application Development Foundation, which I was planning to take anyway. Pretty cool.
And heck, thinks are looking up. We’re on CD 2 already. Of course, I remember Borland C++ on 21 floppies…
