Thanks, the replace option from @Anthony worked pretty well, it got the new
lines but didn't provide indentation (as expected). The <pre></pre> tags
get both, and I like the font well enough except that it is a lighter gray
on a gray background so if I can manage to get that changed I'll probably
go with that option.
Yes Dave, you were right it wasn't stripping the asterisks but wasn't
rendering them the way I would like.
