I have, on occasion, actually dreamed in code. Usually, for me, this takes the form of dreaming that I'm writing the code in question; this may be by typing, but it may also be by sort of fluttering my fingers in the air to sort of generate and "shape" the code. I indent sections by giving them a light but firm rap on the left side, nudging them in a notch. It's kind of cool; I can really feel the indentation levels.
When I wake up from such a dream, I can't remember all the exact details of the code, but I can remember the shape of it well enough to be able to sit down and type out the real thing. It's sort of like what I've produced (or what I remember) is pseudocode. It's enough to show me what needs to be done and how.
