You can do your own formatting by inserting special characters:

Not trimming white space from textblock content

Could not find a way to avoid trimming white space from the text set for a TextBlock. This bothered my panel showing output in mono-space font. I worked around it with an extra prefix character to preserve the formatting. Would be nice to have an option to preserve the spaces when you don’t let TextBlock wrap the lines for you.

I can insert special chars. But how do i know when line breaks ?

Sorry, but I guess there isn’t any easy way to do that.
