Usage

This template supports two parameters

|width= The width of the pre "box"
|space= The way white space is handled in the pre "box"

Markup	Renders as
{{Pre| This Pre-format can look like this. }}	This Pre-format can look like this.

Main differences include:

• It wraps text that overflows the page.
• It allows mid-line-breaks (but not always consistently).

Main limitations include:

• If the text is a single long word, it won't be wrapped and will still break out to the right hand of the page.
• HTML and wikimarkup aren't disabled as in <pre>...</pre> and are rendered as usual (thus if a parameter contains any wikimarkup, enclose it in <nowiki>...</nowiki>); however, multiple spaces are preserved.

As with <pre> and <code>, {{pre}} displays text in the font specified as the monospace font in the user's browser options, or specified in the user's CSS pages.

Example

Markup

{{Pre|
'''First line, markup working:''' and HTML comment <!--HIDDEN--> hidden.

'''Second line, long text wrapping:''' all work and no play make jack a dull boy all work and no play make jack a dull boy all work and no play make jack a dull boy all work and no play make jack a dull boy all work and no play make jack a dull boy.

'''Third line with raw | pipe is handled''', but the space before the pipe is lost. Up to raw 20 pipes are handled, else use <nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki> and {{!}} it's {{!}} OK.

'''Fourth      line,     multiple spaces preserved''' unlike in HTML and wikitext.
