#10454 closed defect (fixed)

Whitespaces are killed in `backtick ` quotes

Description

This is the same case as in Ticket #3925 but still not fixed for backquotes.

Trac-Wiki says:

 {{{...}}} and `...` commands not only select a monospace font, but also treat 
their content as verbatim text, meaning that no further wiki processing 
is done on this text.

But this is only true for {{{ as in

three   spaces   between   words

If I do the same thing with backticks like three spaces between words or with curly braces inline as in three spaces between words Trac helpfully collates the whitespaces.

If I do the same thing with backticks like `three   spaces    between    words` 
or with curly braces inline as in {{{three   spaces   between   words}}} 
Trac helpfully collates the whitespaces.

IIRC the change was intentional, so that we get wrapping.

Now that CSS 2.1 support is the norm, we could add: tt, code, kbd, samp { white-space: pre-wrap }.

Version: 0.121.1dev

The original poster cites WikiFormatting#FontStyles

Issue still present in Trac 1.1. However, it may be better to accept this as a feature: the backticks are mostly used for code, and code rarely contains double spaces. Also, indentation is preserved:

three spaces between words

That way the user has a choice for when double spaces should collapse into a single space or not, ie {{{ ... }}} vs backticks. Therefore, rather than changing code, we could change the documentation for this idiosyncratic feature.

If there's no argument against code, tt { white-space: pre-wrap }, I'll do that change on trunk once we start 1.3.x.
