And here is how to include markdown code which will be ignored by bash.

The concept here is to use bash herestring syntax to pass this entire code string as an arugment to true so it gets ignored.

Some tricks are used to get markdown to actually display this -- the end paren on the same line as the herestring declaration, for instance, and the closing block below which provides the end of the bash herestring.

To get bash AND markdown to ignore the final endparen below, we use the shebang.
