[notag] was added for demonstrating FUDcode, however not many people are familiar with it and will often use the more universal [code] tag.

Why not use the quote tag if you want the pretty formatting?


It is not a question of pretty. It is an issue of presentation. It is a way to distinuish the important from the less important.

as for the quote vs code issue, we have been down that road before. it was like pulling eye teeth to even get you to consider highlighting the code section within a post. You adamantly refused to even consider it. we had some long, drawn-out discussions on it.

Using the CODE tag to highlight changes in the code from one msg to another is a similar case of highlighting. You either just don't see the need for it or you think that some other necessity trumps the need for highlighing. just like with highlighting of the CODE section itself.
