   I want to post examples of indented, single-spaced code. I've tried inserting non-breaking spaces in the HTML, but WordPress strips them out. I've tried using <div style="padding-left: 20px>, but it's a hassle to do and vertical spacing becomes a problem.

   What's the easiest way to display indented, single-spaced code?

   If using the HTML tab:

   <pre><code>
   [ code stuff ]
   </code></pre>

   I've never had any problems using WordPress up to 2.8 and TinyMCE-Advanced up to 3.2.4. In WordPress 2.9, single line breaks, whether entered as a shift-enter in Visual or HTML mode or as
   in HTML mode are stripped out. I thought at first it was TinyMCE-Advanced 3.2.7, but it breaks whether or not this is activated.

   Why does WordPress think it knows better than I how I want my HTML to look? It's getting worse than Microsoft in this regard.
