        Creating a new article for this site is as simple as creating a new text
        file and adding following text:
      </p>
-     <code l="html">
+     <code lang="html">
  <h1>My First Article</h1>
  <p>
    This is the first paragraph.
 Line 297
        somewhere in your article a headline called "Conclusion of Topic", then
        this particular paragraph of your article may be directly linked to from
        other articles or other sites with an URL like
-       <code>http://doc.linuxsampler.org/path/to/your/article/#conclusion_of_topic</code>.
+       <code lang="none">http://doc.linuxsampler.org/path/to/your/article/#conclusion_of_topic</code>.
        If you want to override this behavior, because you rather want to use your
        own ID for a paragraph of your article, then simply set the desired ID with
        your headline:
      </p>
-     <code>
+     <code lang="html">
  <h3 id="my_conclusion">Conclusion of topic</h3>
      </code>
 Line 491
        <code>&lt;code&gt;</code> tags like this:
      </p>
      <code>
- &lt;code&gt;
+ &lt;code lang="??language??"&gt;
    ??source-code??
  &lt;/code&gt;
      </code>

+       You should provide the intended programming language with <code>??language??</code>.
+       Obviously it is exhausting to provide such a <code lang="none">lang</code>

+       a single code token within your paragraphs. So you don't have to do that.
+       If you omit the <code lang="none">lang</code> attribute, then our site's
+       software will automatically use the language defined by your with one of
+       the previous code blocks.

        on its own between the paragraph blocks. Here is an example for the
        <a href="nksp.html">NKSP script language</a>.

-     <code>

  <p>
    Paragraph just before the source code block.
  </p>
- &lt;code&gt;
+ &lt;code lang="nksp"&gt;
  on init
    @foo := "A message"
    message(@foo)
-Line 571 
 end on
+Line 580 
 end on
        do that: simply put the code block into the paragraph text block of your
        HTML file:
      </p>
-     <code>
+     <code lang="html">
  <p>
    A variable is assigned with NKSP like this &lt;code&gt;$foo := 5&lt;/code&gt;, in this
    case you are assigning &lt;code&gt;5&lt;/code&gt; to the integer variable &lt;code&gt;$foo&lt;/code&gt;.

+       You might have noticed, we have used a special kind of <code lang="html">??place-holder??</code> for
        human-readable portions in source code before, which shall outline to the reader
        that it is not actually "real" source code, but just reflecting its semantic meaning.
        Simply put the respective pseudo-code into a pair of two question marks,
        like so:
      </p>
-     <code>
+     <code lang="html">
  &lt;code&gt;
  on init
    declare const $i = \?\?some-value\?\?
-Line 641 
 end on
+Line 650 
 end on
        If you want to add links in your article to another article or to some
        other website, then you just use an ordinary HTML link tag pair:
      </p>
-     <code>
+     <code lang="html">
  <p>
    This paragraph contains &lt;a href="../nksp.html"&gt;a link to another article&lt;/a&gt;
    and to &lt;a href="http://www.linuxsampler.org"&gt;another website&lt;/a&gt;.
-Line 671 
 end on
+Line 680 
 end on
        An article file on our site usually has the following
        file name form:
      </p>
-     <code>
+     <code lang="none">
  ??number-prefix??_??unique-name??.html
      </code>
      <p>
-Line 694 
 end on
+Line 703 
 end on
        Technical terms and abbreviations are often used in articles to reduce
        the amount of text for transmitting some kind of information about a
        certain topic to the reader. You might want to emphasize technical terms and abbreviations
-       in your article, by wrapping the term into a pair of <code><i></code> HTML
+       in your article, by wrapping the term into a pair of <code lang="html"><i></code> HTML
        tags. On our site this will not only show the term in a special unified
        font style (currently italic), but it allows you also to define the
        meaning of the term <b>once</b>. Which goes like this:
-Line 704 
 end on
+Line 713 
 end on
       <p>
        You may define a new term like this:
      </p>
-     <code>
+     <code lang="html">
  <p>
    He left the bar and jumped right into his
    &lt;i title="A very large vehicle."&gt;Mega Liner&lt;/i&gt;
-Line 872 
 end on
+Line 881 
 end on
        You are at the end of our tour introducing our documentation system.
        You may now start writing your first article. Once you are done with it,
        simply
-       <a href="http://www.linuxsampler.org/developers.html">
+       <a href="http://www.linuxsampler.org/developers.html">send your article to some of us</a>,
