Read codeblocks #2

Instead of indented code blocks, in markdown, it is much more common to be inside a fence block that starts with ```language.

That's true for standard markdown, but not necessarily in literate programming because 1) the indentation is easier to parse (both by computer and eyes) and 2) the language is always going to be the same.

Well, the language is only important for the editor to giving proper syntax highlight.

Even though a language will not change I would prefer (because it is more standardized).
