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.


Dunno.

But yours are the only posts so far that do it, so dunno what this
app could be doing wrong just for your posts?

Your last post doesn't exhibit it as bad as usual, did you change
something ?

I misformatted the last paragraph like your articles are.
So this implies PiaoHong.Usenet.Client.Free is making
incorrect assumptions about usenet article formatting.

It's like when someone forces a web browser to display paragraphs
at a set width regardless of screen size, magnification level
etc. Maybe a fixed font, or line length type setting that "fixes"
line lengths, justification in a word processor etc.

PiaoHong.Usenet.Client.Free has had no updates since 2014,
and most of the (very few) reviews are 1-3 stars.


Therefore?

You're unlikely to get that wart fixed.



Assuming there is one to fix...

No assumption, you have proven that there is given that no
one else sees the problem you are seeing with Andrew's posts.



Logic not your strong suit either wod!

You never could bull**** your way out of a wet paper bag.
