Wiki Raw Text

If you should need a big chunk of unformatted text, say to write out a computer program or something, Wiki Raw Text is for you. Simply precede your text with a line starting with a dollar sign (mnemonic: raw = unrefined = USA = dollars).

Any text on the first line, after the dollar sign, is absorbed and used as a vague metadata; it is emitted in an HTML comment, but otherwise goes nowhere and does nothing. It might do something more exciting in future.

For example:

This
 is
  raw
   text

Here's another:

public class Foo
{
	public int square( int x ) { return x * x ; } ;
}

If you're tempted to use this for graphic purposes, use the Ascii Art mode of Wiki Pictures instead.
