Literal backticks and dollar signs can be produced witha backslash escape as in:
a \` \$ bwhich renders as:
a ` $ b
It is not possible to escape backticks (
`) inside an shorthand inline code, or dollar signs ($) in shorthand math.The design reason for that is because multiple backticks produce block code.
The upside is that then you don't have to escape anything else, e.g. backslashes (
\) are rendered literally.The only way to do it is to use the sane syntax instead:
a \c[[b ` c]] d
a \m[[\sqrt{\$4}]] dwhich renders as:
ab ` cda d
Within block code and math, you can just add more separators:
```
code with two backticks
``
nice
```which renders as:
code with two backticks `` nice
