Where can I find how to use formatting tools for this forum? Maybe something that is available on the freeBSD forum [here](https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/formatting-guidelines.49535/) I am eager to use formatting rules to make posts more readable, but give me a direction how to use formatting rules on this excellent forum. I would be very pleased. Kind regards.

Very helpful, thanks a lot. I bookmarked it and will try to set up a post that was canceled today because it was lacking formatting. I am really glad you pointed this out.
