Re: [math-fun] unclever wine rack
This email came through just fine. Does your email program believe in plain ascii? I've noticed that many messaging systems default to fancy formatted text, and sometimes have to be bludgeoned back into the ascii ages. Whenever I "cut & paste" text, I often have to check that it doesn't bring in formatting along with it. When pasting from a web page, I even resort to pasting it into Emacs/Xemacs first to kill the formatting, and then recutting & pasting into where it's really going to go. Yes, this is a pain, but it is better than trying to read googledegobble. At 11:51 PM 1/24/2013, Bill Gosper wrote:
Typed without linebreaks as an email experiment. I normally manually linebreak, much to the puzzlement of of the kids, and my own frustration, when GMail or something inserts additional breaks, creating a bunch of one or two word lines. Contrariwise, all my formatting often suddenly disappears when I paste partial conversations from Roundcube into GMail, much to the irritation of Warren. Why can't it leave my goddam formatting alone?
