A quick demo of Diff syntax trickery.

+ It also greenlines for plus signs
++ For reasons obvious to anyone who works with diffs
+++ Note the different rendering at three pluses
< But!
<< You can also redtext with backwards arrows
<<< Even the third set
<<<< Otherwise, all the same rules apply
- Ditto for minuses
-- Again, obvious for diff jugglers
--- Again, third set of minuses is different
@ More than one ampersand will also create another colour:
@@ Like this!
@@@@@@@@ I normally use this for line breaks,
@@@@@@@@ But do with it what you will!
! Exclamation marks also render differently
!! This one is more editor specific however;
!!! Pastebin renders all exclaims as blue
!!!! But some editors only render with the one
!!!!! YMMV
* asterisks normally don't render
** in the pastebin syntax highlighter
*** until the third set
**** after this, some editors do highlight asterisks beyond this point
***** not often used, but fun nonetheless
Strangely, whitespace does render differently on some platforms
But not on Pastebin
This one is probably more trouble than it's worth
Best to leave that highlighting out, if possible
