How can I insert preformatted text?
A
For inserting e.g. code and keep all formatting you can use backticks.

with 3 backticks you can format
a whole paragraph and keep the formatting

Keep in mind that in edit mode a verbatim block (with 3 backticks) is not formatted in monospace.

Q
Why are short words not shown in the clouds in Rednotebook?
A
This is normal behavior to prevent the clouds from being cluttered with "is, are, the, etc.". If you want words with less than 5 characters in the clouds, go to Edit->Settings->"Cloud whitelist" and add the words you would like to see.
