Ironically, this did not render the way you intended because HN interpreted the asterisk as an emphasis marker in this line.

It works here:

    ... type 'delete *$' twice.
because the line is indented and so renders as code, but not here:

> ... type 'delete $' twice.

because the subsequent line has emphasized text*. So the scoping of the asterisks is all screwed up.
