command\ncommand shows as command command and it makes sense because white space collapses in HTML, unless you are in a <pre> tag or you force it through CSS. :)

Perhaps I misunderstood you. I thought you meant that command and then command were being converted to a single line on your phone.

| Jun 5, 2016 at 13:50 | comment | added | Andrea Lazzarotto | It's not a bug "in my smartphone". As a matter of fact that screenshot was taken with the Chrome developer tools (yes, it shows the same on a real phone, I just wanted to get a screenshot quickly). Anyway, it's not even a "bug" in the CSS of the website. Backticks are to be used for single line code only, therefore there is no reason why the CSS should support showing multiple lines correctly. | |

It's either a bug in your smartphone software or a configuration question requiring information regarding what smartphone, what software you are using, etc. | |

Ok, I see that but I would never combine 2 commands on one line as in your example. I would command /n/n command
