how to enable sane line wrapping of code / other markup
mediawiki versions (tested on) = 1.21.5,1.21.10
To make the long commands wrap, I modified the commonElements.css file in $wikihome/skins/common. Find the section:
pre, code, tt, kbd, samp, .mw-code { /* * Some browsers will render the monospace text too small, namely Firefox, Chrome and Safari. * Specifying any valid, second value will trigger correct behaviour without forcing a different font. */ font-family: monospace, Courier; }
and add
white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;
after the font-family line.
Viola, the <pre> text will now wrap.
Note: when upgrading MediaWiki this file may be overwritten, so you may need to make this modification again.
