Template:Pre/doc

This template implements a version of the functionality provided by the HTML tag.

Usage
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  and are rendered as usual (thus if a parameter contains any wikimarkup, enclose it in ); similarly, multiple spaces are treated as a single one.
 * If there are only two lines, they will be stuck together, even if the source has a blank line between them.

As with and, 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.
