[PATCH] sphinx.rst: Add note about code snippets embedded in the text
From: Andrà Almeida
Date: Tue Jun 11 2019 - 16:08:47 EST
There's a paragraph that explains how to create fixed width text block,
but it doesn't explains how to create fixed width text inline, although
this feature is really used through the documentation. Fix that adding a
quick note about it.
