How do I ensure that whitespace is preserved in Markdown?
markdown
Solution
Markdown is used primarily to generate HTML, and HTML collapses white spaces by default. Use ` ` instead of space characters.
Problem
Currently, I have this line in a Markdown file detailing command output: ``` 1\. Work (00:10:00) 1\. Mail letter (00:05:00, Est. 00:03:00) Send letter to Foo Bar 2\. Personal (00:02:00) ``` However, when I preview the Markdown file, all of the whitespace is disregarded. 1. Work (00:10:00) 1. Mail letter (00:05:00, Est. 00:03:00) Send letter to Foo Bar 2. Personal (00:02:00) How do I preserve this whitespace?
