Comment(by dkg):

 In trac wiki syntax, you can get literal strings to display properly by
 wrapping them in backtick characters.  So:

 {{{
 replace `[^/:@]` with `[^/]`.
 }}}

 becomes:

 replace `[^/:@]` with `[^/]`.

 I really hope we don't go with pde's option 1.  i don't think that
 mozilla's warning prompt in these cases is particularly useful or
 intelligible.
