Hi everyone,


I'm a first time user and I'm trying to move my blog to Texmacs and I 
need to export to HTML with code listings. The code in particular is 
Julia and so I don't have syntax highlighting but I don't mind it a lot. 
The problem is the way it is converted to HTML. More exactly, everything 
that falls inside the <code> environment is converted as a list of 
paragraphs with teletype font (ok) but with lot of line interspacing 
(wrong) and without indentation (very wrong). For example:

This:


struct Factorization
    user_embeddings
    item_embeddings
    item_bias
end


is converted like this:


<p style="margin-top: 0.5em">
      <tt><div style="text-indent: 0em">
        <div class="compact-block">
          <p>
            struct Factorization
          </p>
        </div>
      </div></tt>
</p>

<p>
      <tt><div style="text-indent: 0em">
        <div class="compact-block">
          <p>
            user_embeddings
          </p>
        </div>
      </div></tt>
</p>


etc...


I would prefer to change the conversion and just output the code inside 
<pre></pre> tags.

I have some basic knowledge of scheme and I had a look at 
$TEXMACS_PATH/progs/convert/html/tmhtml.scm and in particular the 
function tmhtml-verbatim where I can more or less see how everything is 
converted. My attempts at forcing verbatim-pre instead of verbatim-tt to 
be called have failed because Texmacs gets stuck at 100% CPU (infinite 
loop?) and I have to kill it. So here are my questions:

- Is there some way of writing my document such that the code listing is 
exported to HTML as a single block inside <pre> tags?

- How to approach developing and debugging the converter scheme code? 
How to run tests, set breakpoints, output info, inspect... that kind of 
things.


Thanks in advance!
