<monospace> Monospace Text (Typewriter Text)

Used to mark text that should appear in a non-proportional font, such as courier.

Usage/Remarks

The <monospace> is used for monospaced words that are inline with other text, for example, computer code fragments, parameters and operators, etc. For block monospace elements, particularly where spaces and line breaks also need to be preserved, use either the generic block structural element <preformat> (which can hold ASCII art, man-machine dialog, or shape poetry) or the semantically explicit element <code> (which holds script or computer coding examples).
