** [tickets:#7020] Runs of tildes within preformatted text prematurelty end preformatted text block [ss6380]**

>In the “Preformatted Text” section of the formatting help, it says “As an alternative to indenting, you can use 4 or more tildes before and after the text.” However apparently four or more tildes *anywhere* in a line is interpreted as the end of the preformatted text, which causes the preformatted text to end prematurely if the preformatted text itself actually contains four or more tildes!
>For example, here is a an error message the clang compiler generated when trying to compile SourceForge-hosted project sdcv, about which I was trying to submit a bug report:

Seems likely that it's something that will need to be fixed upstream, but still, it would be best to have addressed.
