#### 22.6.4 Preventing adjacent <pre> elements from merging

By default, for HTML output DITA2Go merges successive elements mapped to <pre>, provided they are assigned the same CSS class. To prevent such elements from being merged:

    [HTMLOptions]
    ; MergePre = Yes (default, merge adjacent pre elements, or No
    MergePre = No

When MergePre=No, adjacent <pre> elements are not merged, even if they lack a CSS class assignment or have the same CSS class.
