It's good to see such fast progress :)

Do you use some automata for the <pre>-wrapping and code indenting or 
do it manually?
Tip: When doing code formatting manually I found it often more 
convenient to copy/paste the content from the original vim tip than 
modify the code in the imported version - this way you can preserve 
the original indentation easily.
