Unfortunately, there's no really easy way to format it. The length of characters across is determined by window size and zoom. I've found that if you are copying and pasting from somewhere else, it helps if you click on the code button first and insert it there, rather than just paste it as text and highlight it and then click the code button. Also it usually helps if I paste (or type it up) in something like Notepad first, and get the formatting closer to what I want there before pasting it in the comment.

But as for the difference between the displayed text and the text entered in the comment field, I'm not quite sure how to reconcile those easily.
