Fix trailing whitespace in code literal
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
rst apparently requires that the closing double backticks for code literals
appear at the end of a "word", rather than preceded by a space as markdown
allows. This means that ``` ``julia> `` ``` doesn't parse correctly. The
fix is to just remove the trailing space and explicitly mention the need
for a space after the `>`.

In Julia mode, the REPL supports something called *prompt pasting*. This activates when pasting text that starts with ``julia> `` into the REPL.
In that case, only expressions starting with ``julia> `` are parsed, others are removed.
In Julia mode, the REPL supports something called *prompt pasting*. This activates when pasting text that starts with ``julia>`` (with a single space after ``>``) into the REPL.
In that case, only expressions starting with ``julia>`` are parsed, others are removed.
This makes it is possible to paste a chunk of code that has been copied from a REPL session without having to scrub away prompts and outputs.
This feature is enabled by default but can be disabled or enabled at will with ``Base.REPL.enable_promptpaste(::Bool)``.
If it is enabled, you can try it out by pasting the code block above this paragraph straight into the REPL.
