What if you've got </pre> or </code> as part of the code you're 
entering? Yo may be writing about HTML.

I have a better idea.

Don't use HTML as the input format.

Don't use XML either. Use some format that isn't similar to what you're 
going to be working on.

I recommend basing it on
.em RUNOFF
markup, with paired delimiters for literal sections.
.lit .end
Anything up to a .end is literal.

Really literal.
.end
No, I'm
.em not
kidding.
