[drupal-support] <pre> html tag broken in Drupal

[Djun Kim]

   Personally, I was surprised the first time
I encountered the default line breaking
behaviour in Drupal.  Once I understood what
was what was going on, it seemed consistent
that line breaks would be applied everywhere.
So *I* don't consider this to be bug.

  However, if *you* think this behaviour is a bug,
you might consider flagging it as an issue in the Drupal
project issue tracker (otherwise it's unlikely
to get any attention).
