I don't know SGML enough to be able to discuss the adequation of
"NOTATION" (Daniel W. Connolly discussed about it), but I'm not sure
that the syntax highlighting should appear in a <PRE> tag.

If you use <PRE>, you want to be sure that the ends of line appear
where you want. It may be worse than what a good browser could do,
given the size of the browser's window. Indentation for example, should
be handled by the browser...
