Main differences include:
It wraps text that overflows the page.
It allows mid-line-breaks (but not always consistently).
Main limitations include:
If the text is a single long word, it won't be wrapped and will still break out to the right hand of the page.
HTML and wikimarkup aren't disabled as in <pre>...</pre> and are rendered as usual (thus if a parameter contains any wikimarkup, enclose it in <nowiki>...</nowiki>); however, multiple spaces are preserved.
As with <pre> and <code>, {{pre}} displays text in the font specified as the monospace font in the user's browser options, or specified in the user's CSS pages.
{{Pre|'''First line, markup working:''' and HTML comment <!--HIDDEN--> hidden.
'''Second line, long text wrapping:''' all work and no play make jack a dull boy all work and no play make jack a dull boy all work and no play make jack a dull boy all work and no play make jack a dull boy all work and no play make jack a dull boy.
'''Third line with raw | pipe is handled''', but the space before the pipe is lost. Up to raw 20 pipes are handled, else use <nowiki>|</nowiki> and {{!}} it's {{!}} OK.
'''Fourth line, multiple spaces preserved''' unlike in HTML and wikitext.
'''Fifth line, following the previous one'''.
'''Last line''' preceded by two blank lines in markup and in display.
}}
