 To use PLY, simply copy the 'ply' directory to your project and import
 lex and yacc from the associated 'ply' package.  For example:
 
-     import ply.lex as lex
-     import ply.yacc as yacc
+```python
+import ply.lex as lex
+import ply.yacc as yacc
+```
 
 Alternatively, you can copy just the files lex.py and yacc.py
 individually and use them as modules.  For example:
 
-     import lex
-     import yacc
+```python
+import lex
+import yacc
+```
 
 The file setup.py can be used to install ply using distutils.
