[Docutils-users] Multiple html classes per literal block?

[Saunders, G. <gsa...@ea...>]

What I want to do is to have a code example which is included as a
literal block and which has a range of lines specifed as having a
different class name from the rest of the block, so it's possible to
highlight some part of the code example as the interesting bit.

Ideally, one could specify multiple ranges per literal block and the
associated class name extension so example 1 and example 2 can easily
have the same kind of highlighting for the same 'notice this' things.

I don't think that's currently possible; if it is, I'd appreciate to be
told how to do it.

I'm also unsure that it's necessarily an extension you'd care to
entertain; I'd like to advance strongly that it would be very useful for
anyone trying to build documentation addressing that theological
question of 'why'.
