Block code hides parts of the code

[sanbor]

Post the following message: (three backticks)from .finance import (commission, slippage)(three backticks)

Observe how the word from dissapears when the message is posted.

Here's a screenshot:

Code snippet:

 ```from .finance import (commission, slippage)```

Just have to include a space in front here on github

The first word after three backticks without spaces before is used as the language name to render the block.

Because this we have line breaks in the example below of the message field.
Single line quote must use a single backtick.

I will close this issue why this is the expected behavior, but if someone have any idea to improve this tell us and we will reopen the issue.

An idea I just got for this to prevent the reported item is to detected if
there are any line breaks and if so then treat the first word as the
language otherwise treat it as a single line for format.

That seems to be how github is handling this. If a single line it doesn't even try to check for a language.

Very good solution :D

I'd also add the case that if is not a valid language name, don't use it as language name.

Sometimes what I do is to type three backticks and paste a chunk of code, so maybe the first line is touching the three backticks. Github plays nice in this situation.
