Andrew, may I ask what you use to post on here?
You don't need to, it's in his headers: "knews 1.0c.0"
It's an ancient Motif-based news reader.
(That reminds me someone asked me to upload the
source code to github, as I may have the only copy
that still exists. I didn't write it, although I
have had to modify it to add authentication.)
When you do post your & subsequent replies from others posts lines
do not wrap properly & I have to scroll sideways with the risk of
moving onto the next topic etc.
I think that's something your newsreader is doing.
Knews is old enough to moan at me if I post lines
longer than 72 characters, just in case someone
can't read it on their KSR33.
They display properly on this machine.
This only happens on your posts & on any subsequent replies to
your posts...
Just thought I'd ask if there was something not just right at your
end or mine?
Your posts seem to indent the second and subsequent
line of each paragraph, which is not something I've
noticed in anyone else's posts. I don't see any
headers in your posts indicating that this is a
feature of any strange transfer encoding.
Just for fun, I've done this explicitly in this
paragraph.
As you seem to be using "PiaoHong.Usenet.Client.Free:1.65" I'd wager
it's your end that's getting its bits in a twist.
