EDIT: The crunch is done. I'll work on the equipment and fluff. Speaking of equipment...how does the BB Code work? The one that lines everything up.
Welcome aboard Mass defect. <code> </code>, replace <> with [] All spaces in a code block are preserved plus it uses a Monospaced font. Eg.
Code:
[b]Col. 1 Col. 2[/b]
1234567890 abcdef
Without the code block
Col. 1 Col. 2
1234567890 abcdef
abcdefghij 123456
Note the proportional font, which means even with a single space things still don't line up
Hope this is clear.
