I think you are missing an easy solution - put hard line breaks so that
no line exceeds 70 characters.  If anyone cannot read that properly, the
fault is theirs and not the author's.

Another tip - after composing one's News message, but before sending it,
copy'n'paste the allegedly executable code to the dumbest GUI text
editor to hand, save it, run it, and see whether it does what one
expects.
