normally text within a quote box gets caught and removed by the parcer when you click the reply button.

however, if you capitalize [Quote] and [/Quote] the reply parcer won't catch it but the quote block will still display as expected.

so now, if you're ever quoting something that's important enough to remain in your message (like a wikipage or something off-site that you're using to make a point) when someone replies to you, you can capitalize the quote tags and the quote will be nested in any replies to your message!

this also means you can insert nested quotes into your messages without it making the parcer mad!

Hmmm, on one hand, nested quotes won't be broken when someone replies and be confusing to those who don't know much about DText. On the other, they will have to be manually deleted if a reply chain gets too long, which someone who doesn't know much about DText probably won't do.

Should be pretty easy to fix.
