If you're one of the majority currently viewing the newsgroup through Google Groups, you've probably noticed they broke layout again.
If you use a plugin for user stylesheets you can use the following to fix the layout:
html-blob {
white-space: pre;
}
I'm currently using:

I have written a userscript called “ggFormatter”. [1] Its yet unpublished
version 0.2.4 defines, among others
.ptW7te { font-family: monospace; white-space: pre; }
But that does not work well with older articles, as I had to find out when
reading some by Richard Cornford recently, and it will stop working fully if
they change the class name again. I will try your suggestion, then.

I suppose if you like horizontal scrolling such as in some of Julio
post.
I think you may like the results that pre-wrap provides much better.
One can still see Thomas's double spaces after the periods and no
nasty horizontal scrolling for long lines.

Now I know why I did not use the (custom) “html-blob” element type as
selector, but rather “.ptW7te”, where “ptW7te” is the class of the parent
“div” element: It can contain both the quote and the original/new text.
I thought that formatting the parent “div” element covers the formatting of
both quotes and the original text in one rule. But if I am not mistaken, so
does using “html-blob” now.

It is a trade-off: “pre” preserves the original line-wrapping, which is
important e.g. with source code, program output, log files and ASCII art;
“pre-wrap” does not preserve it, but makes Google-Groups-posted postings
with overlong lines containing prose, like that produced (probably
unknowingly so) by Michael Haufe in this thread [1], readable without
horizontal scrolling.
Unfortunately, it is not easily possible to tell prose apart
programmatically.

> One can still see Thomas's double spaces
JFYI: You have replied to my posting :)
> after the periods
The same is true for “white-space: pre”. The only difference between “pre”
and “pre-wrap” is that also “Lines are broken […] as necessary to fill line
boxes.”
<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/white-space>
> and no nasty horizontal scrolling for long lines.
True, but that can also bite you later.
In passing, I noticed that viewing the original source of any posting is no
longer possible, too, because of “Either the e-mail adresses for this group
are anonymous, or you need the permission to view the members’ e-mail
addreses, to view the original message.” (translated from German)

I find this *way* better than Googe Groups to access usenet. In my particular case I use more than six devices and maintaining software on each of them for this purpose is impractical. Thunderbird would be reasonable except that I do not have any desire to have multiple mail clients and the mobile options are questionable. I have significant integrations and dependencies on the Microsoft ecosystem and migrating to a mishmash of other technologies is non-trivial.

Do you have access to a Web server from all those devices, and can run scripting languages on it server-side? -- PointedEars FAQ: <http://PointedEars.de/faq> | <http://PointedEars.de/es-matrix> <https://github.com/PointedEars> | <http://PointedEars.de/wsvn/> Twitter: @PointedEars2 | Please do not cc me./Bitte keine Kopien per E-Mail.

Sounds intriguing - is there a public repository? Which language/framework do you use? I am experienced with PHP/Symfony if any help is welcome. -- Arno Welzel https://arnowelzel.de

I'm a fan of Google groups but I think this is off-topic for the group.

Thanks a bunch! Google support has been wholly unhelpful about this.

This still works. (Actually, I'm doing "pre-wrap" but whatever.) But it has the unfortunate
side effect of doubling the line spacing. Is there a trick to delete whatever extra newlines
are being added?
I tried using Firefox's style editor to peek into the style sheets in use,
but there are dozens of sheets with hundreds of rules in each. And I don't know what I'm
even looking for.
