Wordpress editor, change code wrap (bbpress?)

Question

I am developing a theme and using jquery prettify to style code tags. Sofar I love prettify, and for the most part wordpress is cooperating.

When text is wrapped in <code> tags everything works dandy. But on certain editors, and the bbpress topic / reply / edit , editor the code is wrapped in the the little dash marks just like on these forums, and sometimes the code gets all mangled.

What I am looking to do is force every editor on my wordpress install , or atleast the code buttons on the editor to wrap code in tags instead of the little dash marks. I have looked at some filters but sofar i do not see how to change the output or behavior of the tiny mce fancy editor buttons thats standard with wordpress.

Thanks for any direction or suggestions.

put this code in functions.php

add_action('wp_footer','ravs_codeTag_fix');
function ravs_codeTag_fix(){
    if ( bbp_use_wp_editor() ) :
    ?>
    <script>
        jQuery(document).ready( function() {

            /* Use <code> instead of backticks for the Code button in the editor */
            if ( typeof( edButtons ) !== 'undefined' ) {
                edButtons[110] = new QTags.TagButton( 'code', 'code', '<code>', '</code>', 'c' );
                QTags._buttonsInit();
            }
        });
    </script>
    <?php
    endif;
}

Note:

bbpress plugin overwrites the code button behaviour ( of wordpress editor ) by putting some script in head.You can find this script in bbpress->templates->default->bbpress-functions.php online 219

Updated:

1).If you want to customize wordpress editor then you can explore it by going throw WordPress QuickTags API (quicktags.js) and Tinymce WordPress codex.These documention also have good tutorial link which guide you practically.

2).You can use WordPress Plugin AddQuicktag for editing WordPress Editor.This plugin make it easy, Quicktags add to the html - and visual-editor.. It is possible to ex- and import your Quicktags.

Edited:

paste below code in functions.php.

add_filter( 'bbp_new_topic_pre_content',  'ravs_bbp_code_trick', 10);
add_filter( 'bbp_new_reply_pre_content',  'ravs_bbp_code_trick', 10);
add_filter( 'bbp_new_forum_pre_content',  'ravs_bbp_code_trick', 10);
add_filter( 'bbp_edit_topic_pre_content',  'ravs_bbp_code_trick', 10);
add_filter( 'bbp_edit_topic_pre_content',  'ravs_bbp_code_trick', 10);
add_filter( 'bbp_edit_forum_pre_content',  'ravs_bbp_code_trick', 10);
function ravs_bbp_code_trick( $content ){
    $pattrens[0]='/<code>/';
    $pattrens[1]='/<\/code>/';
    $content = preg_replace( '/\`/','backtick_place', $content );
    $content = preg_replace( $pattrens,'`', $content );
    return $content;
}
add_filter('bbp_get_topic_content','ravs_bbp_prevent_trick',51);
add_filter('bbp_get_reply_content','ravs_bbp_prevent_trick',51);
add_filter('bbp_get_form_forum_content','ravs_bbp_prevent_trick',51);
function ravs_bbp_prevent_trick($content){
    $content = preg_replace( '/backtick_place/','`', $content );
    return $content;
}
