    Nice tip. I have never edited a colormap. Sometimes though I specify a number of colors, like colormap(jet(25)), to have a “more discrete” number of colors.

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
