code snippet syntax highlight

[FranklinYu]

For example the two snippets here should have been plain text, but are now renderred as shell script. I'm not familiar with Octopress, but according to the documentation labeling them with plain seems to suffice.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here. The snippets render as plaintext for me. Can you help me understand?

I see this on latest Chrome on macOS Sierra.

Ah! I see it now. Roger.

Closing, this page was rewritten and no longer contains this antipattern. Thanks again for pointing it out!
