Doesn't show i.e. IRC names correctly
Hi,
We noticed when IRC logs are pasted onto threads in vanilla the nicknames are being omitted. It's probably due to "<" and ">" indicating bb code or HTML tags. It also keeps us from writing documentation like man pages which often contain "<" OPTIONAL ">". Wouldn't it be better to validate if its a know tag/BB code?

x00 MVPYes that is correct, by default vanilla parses html
use < and > to display < and > respectively
If you want to bbcode you can enable that. However I personally I wouldn't, people are much more used to xhtml these days, and it is more versatile. than bbcode, which isn't standardised.
Using an editor it can handle the formatting for you, as you are not entering source.grep is your friend.
