Formatting XML and other computer code

[Charles Beck]

Hi Carol,

I do it the way you do it. If there is a better way, I'd also like to know about it, because I sure can't seem to come up with one.

Subject: Formatting XML and other computer code


I'm wondering how other FrameMaker users handle formatting XML and other computer code samples in text. I have tried a couple of approaches and am not satisfied with either. 
 
One approach I've taken is to create a paragraph tag that contains regularly spaced tabs. This requires that I reformat the code when imported into Frame, which can be labor-intensive.
 
The other approach I've taken is to take screen shots of the code. Yuck! (for obvious reasons).
 
I hope I'm missing something here.
 
Thanks for your advice!
 
- Carol
