Code Display Suggestion

I would like to suggest an enhancement for how code is displayed. I have seen this style on several sites and it seems very nice : NVIDIA Developer Forums[^]

The main thing this provides is line numbers. This is very helpful because many users write "I get an error on line xyz" and it's a PITA to count lines. The contrasting backgrounds is a nice bonus.

What do y'all think?

The trouble with that is they need to provide the complete code from line 1. And if the error is in a small subroutine that starts at line 723 there is a lot of irrelevant text to scroll through.

Interesting. I have always liked CP's code view better than anyone else. I think there may have been a different one I really liked more but can't remember what it was.

I don't like the alternate row coloring, in particular. Seems harder to read.

Authors have the ability to add line numbers to their code listing if needed:

HTML

<pre lang="BASIC" linecount="true" countstart="10" countincrement="10">
PRINT "HELLO WORLD!"
GOTO 10
</pre>

will produce

BASIC

 10  PRINT "HELLO WORLD!"
 20  GOTO 10

But I know you're looking for line numbers everywhere.

We could add a button at the top right that adds line numbers, but my preference is to, in general, not have the line numbers in order to keep things clean, and instead leave it to the authors for specific use cases.

I prefer no line numbers as well because it makes copy/pasting more convenient. However a button to add line numbers (and turn them off) would be a nice feature.

wasn't parsed well.

Also, all inner links aren't working [](#).
Although it all work fine in the original readme.md

I guess your parcer has some issues.

I've added the details and summary tags to our list of allowed tags in our HTML sanitiser. Should be live soon(ish)

Thanks for the reply.
But what about hrefs?

Chris Maunder13-Sep-19 9:33

13-Sep-19 9:33

Yep - href's fixed too.

We use GitHub itself to format the HTML, so a bit weird the amount of post-processing we need to do to get it usable.
