formatting

When using Windows Live Writer, I'd like to be able to select text and press a key combination to surround it with a given tags (like Ctrl-B surrounds it with <b> tags). The one I specifically want to do is either <code> or <pre>. Is there some way to configure this?

All XSLT editors I've tried till now add tab or space characters to the XSLT to indent it for formatting.
