## NAME

`angle_bracket_syntax` - angle bracket syntax test

A WORD in angle brackets is converted to WORD,

    except when <WORD> is
    part of a preformatted
    code block,

or when `<WORD>` is enclosed in backticks.

or when WORD has a or .

## Escaping angle brackets

You can escape <angle> <brackets> with backslashes, since we're using GitHub Flavored Markdown.

Example:

`pxzgrep` [`-p`<n>] [`-V`] [<xzgrep options>] <pattern> <file1> <file2> [<more files>]

(Though really you should just put that in a fenced code block.)
