Re^4: Perl forked processes and variable sharing

Hi again Rolf,

I had tried enclosing my code in <code></code> tags, but found that all of my lines that were longer than a certain length were flowing onto the next line instead of just extending out to their full length, e.g.

<code>

This is a moderately long line of code which I would expect to see flo
+wing all the way across the page.

</code>

I couldn't find a way to prevent that, so I tried <pre></pre> instead and it worked, e.g..

<pre>

This is a moderately long line of code which I would expect to see flowing all the way across the page.

</pre>

Thanks, Richard

Hello fireblood,

I had tried enclosing my code in <code></code> tags, but found that all of my lines that were longer than a certain length were flowing onto the next line...

That’s not a bug, it’s a feature! Just find your Settings Nodelet and choose Display, then under Code List Settings make the value of Code Wrap Length larger (whatever suits your display)¹ — and you can return to using <code> tags with no problems. :-)

¹Update: This only affects your view of the code; other monks see the same code wrapping according to their personal display settings.

Hope that helps,
