Allow the person reading HTML docs to copy-paste without >>>

[shimizukawa]

Hello,

One of my users complained that he can't copy-paste Python shell samples to his shell because of the ">>> " and "... " parts. When the user copies text, these prompts become part of the text and the user can't paste the code in the shell and run it.

Here's an example of a page containing shell samples:

http://docs.garlicsim.org/intro/tutorial1.html

Perhaps it's possible to do something so the user could copy-paste without ">>> "? Perhaps some kind of table so the prompts won't be part of the flowing text? Or perhaps some JS trickery that will get rid of the prompts when copy-pasting?

Looks like duplicate of issue <<issue 267>> to me.
