text
Wraps short spans of source code (typically programming language keywords) in which line breaks are not allowed. This needs to be used instead of <code>...</code>
, because keywords in some programming languages contain characters that can trigger a line break even after the first character of the keyword.
For example,
FORTH word (i.e. command) ?BRANCH
contains a question mark.
Normally, you would write <code>?BRANCH</code>
When the web browser sees the question mark near the end of line, the rendering could look like this:
?
BRANCH
rest of the textUsually, you want to force the question mark to be rendered next to the rest of the FORTH word.
When you use {{PreCode|?BRANCH}}
, the resulting rendering will be never broken into two lines inside the source code.
