I find it curious that the various lines of code are all indented to different lengths – perhaps there’s some meaning to be gleaned from that?
Maybe the lines of underscores and slashes point to particular pieces of the other messages somehow?

I have been thinking that the lines are intended to point to other parts of the code, but I don't know how you could make sure they 100% accurately pointed, as there's only horizontal fields, not diagonal. Perhaps we could draw lines stemming from them and see how far they go before they hit another word, but it seems too sloppy for this ARG.
I did notice how in each variation, there's sort of 4 different lines, E.G the first one:
:
!--
/ | | |
/ | | |
-->
Is like, SLASH, LINE, LINE, LINE
Then the third;
SLASH, LINE, HALF LINE, SLASH
So it does appear there could be some configuration to follow. I don't know what though, I can't find any ciphers that use slashes and lines. Perhaps an old language?
I don't think they're all meant to fit together, as it just becomes a mess as far as I can see. I'm not sure what the best course of action is. I would assume there has to be a clue in some of the text as to where we can find the guide for the lines, I'd hope.

I think the best route now would be to examine the lines, I think they hold the next clue. I can't think of any ciphers they match, and searching is returning no results. Are they a drawing or a code? The text sections seem to be self-explanatory, and we have the braille translated, so I think the next clue lies there.
