<code>This text should be displayed as code</code>
<s>This text should be strikethrough</s>
<u>This text should be underlined</u>
<pre language="javascript">
And this text
should support multi-line
code formatting
</pre> A hyperlink (a link in the text) can be created as follows:
<a href="{{link}}">link text</a> Where {{link}} is the link.
