how do we use it as such?
Naturally, you surround the part(s) to be deleted with <readmore> and </readmore>, as you would see if you did "view HTML source" on that node.
How long has it been available in this enhanced form
Months. Sorry, I can't easily pin it down much more than that.
BTW, I think it would be good to make the readmore tags somehow subtly visible (without having to resort to "view source") when viewing the full node, but I haven't come across an appealing presentation for that (none have been nearly subtle enough).
Update: No, wait. I did come up with one I liked, but I had forgotten it. My idea was to provide a "Read less" link in the node header if a <readmore> is present and that would add a readless=1 CGI parameter that would trigger readmore processing even though you are looking directly at the node. Anyone game?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
