What is that HTML tag to display text as it actually appears in the file?

Yes, I have tried googling this.
No, I have not found the answer.
Yes, I know it is easy.

What is that HTML tag for slowing text content as it actually appears in the html file? If you use it, you do not have to worry about <br> because it does a line break exactly as it appears.

Yes, use <pre> but you should still use htmlentities
ie < should be output as <
