+### `library-cm6::pre-init`
+
+This event is called just before any CodeMirror instances are initialised so that the instance configuration can be viewed and altered before the instance is created.
+
+#### Event Data
+
+- `usage` - A string label to identify the usage type of the CodeMirror instance in BookStack.
+- `editorViewConfig` - A reference to the [EditorViewConfig](https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorViewConfig) that will be used to create the instance.
+- `libEditorView` - The CodeMirror [EditorView](https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorView) class object, provided for convenience.
+- `libEditorState` - The CodeMirror [EditorState](https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#state.EditorState) class object, provided for convenience.
+- `libCompartment` - The CodeMirror [Compartment](https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#state.Compartment) class object, provided for convenience.
+
+##### Example
+
+The below shows how you'd enable the built-in line wrapping extension for page content code blocks:

+
+```javascript
+window.addEventListener('library-cm6::pre-init', event => {

+    }
+});

+
+### `library-cm6::post-init`
+
+This event is called just after any CodeMirror instances are initialised so that you're able to gain a reference to the CodeMirror EditorView instance.
+
+#### Event Data
+
+- `usage` - A string label to identify the usage type of the CodeMirror instance in BookStack.
+- `editorView` - A reference to the [EditorView](https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorView) instance that has been created.
+- `editorViewConfig` - A reference to the [EditorViewConfig](https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorViewConfig) that was used to create the instance.
+- `libEditorView` - The CodeMirror [EditorView](https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#view.EditorView) class object, provided for convenience.

+- `libCompartment` - The CodeMirror [Compartment](https://codemirror.net/docs/ref/#state.Compartment) class object, provided for convenience.
