Usually I would wrap the code in 
 but for various reasons this is not so
easy to do (the blog software chews double spaces).

It would be extra nice if the function did pretty syntax highlighting!

I tried format-encode-region to html but that didn't seem to so what I
wanted (or at least I didn't see a bunch of &nsp;'s and 
's appear).
