Use[edit source]

Makes a formatted box with one edge against the left margin, and when displayed in preformatting tags or an equivalent template, the text block is cleanly centered, and the boders are straight. Used for testing preformatted layouts.

Use the templates Prettypre or Prewrap, to handle formatted text in styled layouts. Other text blocks exist; Lorem ipsum, and Text, are both unformatted text blocks.
