Use Inline Formatting

You can specify inline formatting in RST through special symbols around the text you want to format.

Code Text

Use double backquotes to show text as code. For example:

Set the ``env`` variable.

The ``Production Accepted`` event.

Edit the ``conf.py`` file.

Enter: ``run``

Use code formatting to highlight code snippets, variable names, file paths and names, or text the user must type.

Italic Text

Use single asterisks to show text as italic, or emphasized, for example when introducing a new term.

A *title* is about . . .

Bold Text

Use double asterisks to show text as bold, or strong.
