/**
 *
 *   *  Backtick quotes are used for <code></code> spans.
 *
 *   *  You can use multiple backticks as the delimiters if you want to
 *     include literal backticks in the code span. So, this input:
 *
 *         Just type ``foo `bar` baz`` at the prompt.
 *
 *       Will translate to:
 *
 *         <p>Just type <code>foo `bar` baz</code> at the prompt.</p>
 *
 *    There's no arbitrary limit to the number of backticks you
 *    can use as delimters. If you need three consecutive backticks
 *    in your code, use four for delimiters, etc.
 *
 *  *  You can use spaces to get literal backticks at the edges:
 *
 *         ... type `` `bar` `` ...
 *
 *       Turns to:
 *
 *         ... type <code>`bar`</code> ...
