 * Hello,
    are there any plans to include support for the visual editor?
 * I want to be able to select and indent a code inside a pre and a code tags:
 *     ```
       <pre><class="prettyprint"><code>var i = 0;
       var j = i * 2;
       </code></pre>
       ```
   
 * I can do it in visual editor, but it would be much better workflow to do it in
   visual editor. I am using the Visual Editor Custom Buttons to create a pre/code
   block.

 * Hi,
 * There are currently no plans to support the visual editor. The plugin only supports
   textarea elements and the visual editor uses a contenteditable iframe body. I
   realize this would be a useful feature, so it’s on my list of things to look 
   into.
 * For now, however, you’ll have to use spaces to indent in the visual editor or
   switch to the HTML editor to use the tab key.
 * Let me know if you have any other questions.
 * Thanks,
    Bill
