This is really wonderful. An excellent feature for new users –
lowers the cost of "just try it out".
Feedback:
1. It will be aesthetically better if the edit/run buttons are
inside the code box, say just inside the right top corner.
2. Could we add a "open in an external website/new window"
icon/button (for example:
http://findicons.com/files/icons/2315/default_icon/256/open_in_new_window.png ) to open the example in say a dpaste window or an equivalent playground.
Thanks,
Saurabh
