Status: Bug confirmed July 13 2004, considering how to fix without breaking existing usage. --CliffordAdams


If you paste some code example into a <pre></pre> environment, which contains "\" line-continuation for its own purpose, then those trailing backslashes are interpreted as wiki-line-continuations, effectively messing up the display of the preformatted code. Look at this example rendered by wiki and then look at the source:

This should be line 1      line 2  line 3

but wiki puts them all together onto one.
