 I'm trying to put a list of tags in a table, so I carefully make a newline-free taglist.tmpl and then do:
 
-<pre>
-| [ [!inline pages="link(/category/env)" feeds=no archive=yes sort=title template=taglist] ] |
-</pre>
+    | \[[!inline pages="link(/category/env)" feeds=no archive=yes sort=title template=taglist]] |
 
-but there's a line in <pre>inline.pm</pre> that does:
-<pre>
-        return "&lt;div class=\"inline\" id=\"$#inline\"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;\n\n";
-</pre>
+but there's a line in `inline.pm` that does:
+
+    return "&lt;div class=\"inline\" id=\"$#inline\"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;\n\n";
 
 And the extra newlines break the table.  Can they be safely removed?
