well no because that's what <pre> does. prevent wrapping.

Your problem doesn't seem to be an XSLT one at all but rather an HTML
one. You should first figure out what HTML you want to generate.
Do you want a pre, or to mark paragraphs with <br> or to wrap each par
in a <p> etc. Once you have decided what the input string looks like and
what you want the generated HTML to be then you can start to think about
what XSLT can be used to get from one to another.

So first edit, by hand, a sample output file until it produces the
result you want.
