I wasn't following Meta Stack Overflow too closely so maybe something was changed that I'm not aware of. But each time I paste a snippet from a Python console I'm getting wrong formatting. What I'm doing wrong? It seems that '>>>'>>> is confusing for Stack Overflow. I've tried to escape it with backslashes, and it was working fine in preview but doesn't work after the question is rendered.

I was able to observe that problem on: recent Chrome (Windows, Mac), Safari 4 (Mac).

Here is my recent answer my recent answer I wasn't able to make right.

Funny, I think the snippets are rendered just fine on Meta Stack Overflow. Here is one:

>>> def throw(): raise Exception() 
... 
>>> a=1
>>> a=throw()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in throw
Exception
>>> a
1
