- Summary changed from pre code tags not working in 4.3 to Pre code tags not always working in Text mode
Happens in Text only, switching to Visual escapes the < sign and it shows as expected.
Could reproduce as far back as 4.0.7.

Everyone who disabled the visual editor and is using these tags will have a problem.
Switching to Visual can also mess up all your PHP code.

The Text editor supports HTML. In HTML <, &, " and preferably > have to be entities. Otherwise it is invalid HTML :)
These rules apply for the content of the <pre> tag too. If you want better support for typing code samples, use one of the syntax highlighting plugins: https://wordpress.org/plugins/syntaxhighlighter/.
