It's very simple. Normal posts use variable pitch fonts and will automatically wrap lines to fit the window.

Anytime you want to insert text which requires fixed-font spacing, you have two options: Make the entire post fixed font, in which case you have to insert your own CR-LF (carraige return - line feed), or surround the fixed-font text with the PRE tag and end-tags (PRE-formatted):

variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text ....

{insert <pre> here...}

fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text
fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text 
fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text fixed text 

{insert </pre> here...}


variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text variable text
