Grrrrr -- I give up, but the .DS/.DI should be on separate lines...

Shoot! This mail doesn't look like what I typed! Let me try the formatting
of the code snippet again...

Which macro set are you using? For mm, I think .DS/.DE used to do thisbut
it's been a while and things may have changed.
Try the following:
.DS<pre><code>fun() {
echo "hello" > /dev/null 2>&1;
}
</code></pre>.DE
I added some additional spaces in front of the echo line -- I think the norm is
to use 8 spaces or a tab for indented lines but maybe that's just me.
You could use .DS I to indent the entire display if you like.

Hi,
Recently I've thought about using groff for writing static website. One
problem I've ran into is doing codeblocks. What I'm trying to do is
this:
.HTML <pre><code>
fun() {
echo "hello" > /dev/null 2>&1;
}
.HTML </code></pre>
However this doesn't preserve the indendation and newlines are not
properly preserved either. The output I'm trying to achieve is _exactly_
the following:
<pre><code>
fun() {
echo "hello" > /dev/null 2>&1;
}
</code></pre>
It should escape anything that needs escaping but preserve indendation
and newlines properly.
