But now typing this message, I could have given the answer myself, <g> does work - so why shouldn't < pre > work ... Well, it's past 01:00 am here, so this might be the cause for not thinking about that :)
< G > (without the spaces), of course, only works because it isn't defined in HTML. Other codes should be written different, to avoid interpretation.
Of course, you could use lt and gt, with & in front... but that makes the source-code more difficult to read (in case anybody presses "Reply").
