 | Don't know since when but when I click at reply on the post https://forum.dlang.org/post/tlt15t$tov$1@digitalmars.com the quotes look like > > I would like to know if there is a representation of that > ominous > > "invalid state" in terms of bits and bytes. Well, it doesn't > have to. instead of > > I would like to know if there is a representation of that ominous "invalid state" in terms of bits and bytes. Well, it doesn't have to. or > > I would like to know if there is a representation of that ominous > > "invalid state" in terms of bits and bytes. Well, it doesn't have to. It seems that the reply function cannot correctly group lines of quotes into paragraphs. Reminds me of the famous format=flowed issues [1] (trailing space on a line means: join the line with the next one.) [1] https://joeclark.org/ffaq.html | |||

 Posted in reply to kdevel | That should be relatively easy to fix Is the forum open source? I also wish quotes were better displayed, it is easy to miss a non-quote message in between quotes.. | |||

For future reference, there's a link at the bottom of every forum page, 'About this forum'.

Reminds me of the famous format=flowed issues [1] (trailing space on a line means: join the line with the next one.) The forum is behaving correctly, Ali's post is just weird. Click "View source" and notice that the quoted lines are space-stuffed. This syntax tells user-agents that the > character should be handled verbatim, and not as a quote indicator. I think Thunderbird makes it easy to do this accidentally by copying and pasting text. It has a separate "Paste as quotation" action to paste proper quoted text. | |||

Yes, this is just CommonMark being weird. GitHub does the same thing: | |||
