 * The code tag is working as it is intended by the html specification. Similarly,
   the plugin is working as it is intended.
 * However, what you’re looking for is really client-side css styling. Add the following
   to the bottom of your style.css file
 * `code {
    display:block; font-size: 0.9em; font-family: "Courier New"; border:
   1px solid black; background-color: #f9f9f9; width: 400px; overflow: auto; padding:
   5px; }

 * oh .I get it.
    add height:300px.
 * but I have another question. Can I make the block auto scale.
    for example. if
   the code height <300 .not show the scrollbar. and the block height is the code
   text height,if the code text height >300 and show scrollbar.
 * sorry for my bad english.
 * thanks again.
