In some cases, Marked two displays text surrounded with backticks, with additional <span> elements.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create an examples file with, for example:

echo 'In Ruby objects of class Object respond to the methods/messages #nil? and #to_s'. > example.md

Note that "#method_name" is the idomatic way to denote instance methods in Ruby documentation, esp. when used in conbination with classes.

1. Open that file with Marked 2.
   
2. The displayed file is shown with elements.

Suggestion

I'd suggest to at least provide a way to display the text as intended. One possible way is to allow escaping the #-sign. Another way is to not render the backtick-octothorpe-combination with a element.

   Oh, the code in that command line should not have been highlighted, but instedt used backticks. Is there a way to escape the backticks? Maybe `something` (trying a backslash here).

   OK, the command line should look like this:

   echo 'In Ruby objects of class Object respond to the methods/messages `#nil?` and `#to_s`'. > example.md

   i think they’re being interpreted as tags. It shouldn’t do it within code spans, so I’ll have to look at that, but you can disable #tag rendering entirely in Preferences (sorry, afk so I can’t remember exactly which preference pane it’s on).

   Thanks,
