Quick Reference: Formatting Code in Blogger

I'd been looking for something to help with this - pasting code into the Blogger post editor results in... well... garbage.  It took so much time to format code that I typically didn't do it.  I'll probably go overboard in the other direction - but at least I found a tool to help.
Head on over to Phil Factor's Code Prettifier.  I'm going to be using that facility (and this post to find it) for a great many posts.  A close runner-up is Format My Source Code (thanks Andrew Beacock for blogging about that).  I like Phil's colours, so I'm going with that one now - but I do like the boxed code Greg Houston's site makes.
