I was just about to make a post talking about the switch over to dasBlog.  I was going to talk about what I liked and didn't like and whatever, but mostly I was going to talk about the work I have been putting in on writing code that will filter out code and format it nicely.

I wrote and tested an HttpModule which loads a Reponse Filter that parses the Html looking for <code> tags and formats the code inside those nicely.

So I go to write my first post, and I am looking for a hyperlink button in the texteditor, but instead I see this icon that look like a C# file.  "No, I did not just waste all that time" I thought. 

public bool IsTimeWasted(String name){
    return true;
}

So you can see I basically wasted my time doing all that.

This tool doesn't provide an HTML code type, and I used J# in place of Javascript, but it works ok I guess.

The on thing it is really lacking is that it doesn't maintain indents!?!?  I manually restored the indents above, otherwise my vb code would look like this:

Public Function IsWasted(ByVal time As TimeSpent) As Boolean
If time IsNot Nothing Then
Return True
Else
Return False
End If
End Function

Which is weird, b/c it looks fine in the preview window... I will have to look into that.
