 Reading a GPX file, and cropping its contents to a given area:
-         <tt>gpx =  GPX::GPXFile.new(:gpx_file => filename)   # Read GPX file</tt>
-         <tt>bounds = GPX::Bounds.new(params)                 # Create a rectangular area to crop</tt>
-         <tt>gpx.crop(bounds)                                 # Crop it</tt>
-         <tt>gpx.write(filename)                              # Save it</tt>
+         gpx =  GPX::GPXFile.new(:gpx_file => filename)   # Read GPX file
+         bounds = GPX::Bounds.new(params)                 # Create a rectangular area to crop
+         gpx.crop(bounds)                                 # Crop it
+         gpx.write(filename)                              # Save it
 
 Converting a Magellan track log to GPX:
-      <tt>if GPX::MagellanTrackLog::is_magellan_file?(filename)</tt>
-      <tt>   GPX::MagellanTrackLog::convert_to_gpx(filename, "#{filename}.gpx")</tt>
-      <tt>end</tt>
+      if GPX::MagellanTrackLog::is_magellan_file?(filename)
+         GPX::MagellanTrackLog::convert_to_gpx(filename, "#{filename}.gpx")
+      end
