Prefix Pretty Print Styles.

I’m not sure how this has gone un-noticed for so long, or maybe I’m just missing something.

Alot of the styles are un-prefixed, ie:

.tag { color: #008; }

The problem with that (unless I am missing something), is that proper themes drop classes into the body element to indicate the page your on for custom styling. If I’m on a tag page/archive, body gets the class tag appended to it… which then turns all inherited text to navy blue (000088).

The work around is to add an additional style to my sheet specifically setting the text color of body.tag, or any other tag class I may be using that inherits its font color.

Another useful solution is to first check for an existing stylesheet in the users theme directory for prettify.css, if not found load the default from the plugins directory. That way future updates will not over-write custom styles.
